Leibniz's spark of Kant's great light
an application of Castañeda's Darwinian approach to the history of philosophy
Ricardo J. Gomez
pp. 313-320
Newton's influence upon Kant, especially about space and time, has been recently emphasized. At the same time, there seems to be an increasing tendency to diminish Leibniz's relevance for Kant's philosophical views (Jaakko Hintikka is perhaps the headmaster of this contemporary trend; see especially Hintikka 1959, 1965, 1967, and Hintikka & Remes 1974). In the extreme case, it is even alleged that Kant's adoption of his transcendental point of view was a consequence of his complete departure from Leibniz's epistemology and metaphysics (see, for example, Buroker 1981).
