Abstract

AbstractMy response to Gabriele Gava’s Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason and the Method of Metaphysics(2023) focuses on Kant’s conception of the role of critique in the Critique of Pure Reason.On my account, Gava’s emphasis on the constructive elements of the Critiquedownplays the critique of former metaphysics elaborated in all three parts of the Transcendental Doctrine of Elements. After some comments on Kant’s conception of the Critiqueas a doctrine of method, I support this view by discussing the relation between transcendental philosophy and transcendental critique, Kant’s analysis of the faculties, and his transcendental deduction of space.
