  • Summary

  • In this episode we explore the correct context for understanding Kant’s relation to the historical period known as “the Enlightenment” or “the Age of Reason.” On the one hand, Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason may be understood as “critiquing reason to make room for faith.” On the other hand, the Method of Kant’s Transcendental Philosophy reveals Spirit as the condition for the possibility of the unity of Mind and Body. We’ll understand these insights by discussing what has been called “the Homeric Contest” to complete Kant’s “System of Transcendental Philosophy.” The contest refers to the competition that may be witnessed in the writings of Fichte, Novalis, Hölderlin, Schelling, Schopenhauer, and Hegel. Understanding this historical contextualization of Kant’s philosophy makes it much easier to see that contemporary Postmodern criticisms of Kant’s philosophy are not actually criticisms of Kant’s philosophy. Rather, they are criticisms of Descartes’ philosophy. Thus, Kant’s philosophy is not the problem; Kant’s philosophy is the solution to the problem(s) with Descartes’ philosophy. .
