Abstract

The text of the "Transcendental Analytic" up to and including the chapter on the "Schematism" is so rich in observations and insights that it already merits an initial provisional assessment, even though the "Analytic" itself is still far from concluded. Our assessment will concentrate on three central issues: the fundamental concepts of the understanding (12.1), the theory of truth (12.2.), and the critique of epistemological naturalism.
