Kant's dialectic and the logic of illusion

Graham Solomon

pp. 127-136

In September 21, 1798, Immanuel Kant wrote the following in a letter to Christian Garve: "It was not the investigation of the existence of God, immortality, and so on, but rather the antinomy of pure reason —"the world has a begiming; it has no begiming, and so on,' right up to the 4th: "There is freedom in man, versus there is no freedom, but only the necessity of nature' — that is what first aroused me from my dogmatic slumber and drove me to the critique of reason itself, in order to resolve the scandal of apparent contradiction of reason with itself'.2
