Kant: Making Reason Intuitive

by Believeology Enterprises (Editor), P. Kontos (Editor), R Payne Smith M a (Editor)

Overview

Kant denies that Reason is intuitive, but demands that we must 'make' Reason intuitive, particularly in matters of morality. This book analyzes and explores this central paradox within Kantian thought, with contributions from a range of different perspectives, including political philosophy, ethics, religion, science and aesthetics.
