A Commentary to Kant's 'Critique of Pure Reason'

by Norman Kemp Smith

[695] In his later writings Kant recognises that the representations of space and time involve an Idea of Reason. Cf. above, pp. 97-8; below, pp. 390-1.

[696] § 39.

[697] Reflexionen, ii. 513, cf. 502, 525-7.

[698] Op. cit. ii. 513.

[699] Cf. op. cit. ii. 537.

[700] Cf. above, p. 90 ff.

[701] Only in one passage, Rechtslehre, i., Anhang 3, 2, cited by Adickes, op. cit. p. 13, does Kant so far depart from his own orthodoxy as to speak of the possibility of an a priori tetrachotomy. But he never wavers in the view that the completeness of a division cannot be guaranteed on empirical grounds.

[702] Introduction, § 9 n. Eng. trans. p. 41.

[703] §§ 4-6, 9.

[704] A 70-6 = B 95-101.
