Kant's idea of a critique of practical reason
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- "Kant's idea of a critique of practical reason" presents a novel and sympathetic treatment of Kant's method, anti-skeptical aspirations, and metaphysics in the Critique of Practical Reason. Some of Kant's most sympathetic readers have found the Critique's account of the foundations of morality both methodologically obscure and metaphysically extravagant. I venture a reading according to which the Critique's moral metaphysics emerges in the course of Kant's rich and surprising moral psychological explanation of the possibility of moral obligation. The resulting account of the practical side of human experience is, I argue, fully in line with the metaphysically anodyne approach to its theoretical side he takes in the Critique of Pure Reason.
