ABSTRACT

The heart of the Critique of Pure Reason, and its most difficult passages, are contained in the Division entitled Transcendental Analytic; for it is there, with some dependence on the earlier section concerned with space and time and called Transcendental Aesthetic, that Kant attempts to show what the limiting features must be of any notion of experience which we can make intelligible to ourselves. I shall try to indicate in outline the nature of this attempt and to estimate the degree of success it achieves.
