Description

This study takes listeners into the heart of Kant’s critical project, asking why the very questions of God, freedom and immortality resist ordinary reasoning and what a genuine theory of knowledge might look like. The author builds on a rich tradition of Kant scholarship, weaving together insights from the Critique of Pure Reason and the Prolegomena while keeping the discussion grounded in everyday philosophical concern.

The first half lays out the essential distinction between sensibility and understanding, explaining how forms of perception and the metaphysical grounding of space shape our experience. It then moves to the inner sense, the categories that structure thought, and the way representations refer to objects—offering clear, step‑by‑step analysis. Throughout, the tone is thoughtful and approachable, making a notoriously dense subject accessible to anyone curious about the limits and possibilities of human reason.
