Episode 23 - The Origin of Cognition: Kant and Critique of Pure Reason
In this episode, hopefully we nail down what it is that Kant means when he uses the term 'transcendental.' Also, the cognitive mechanism Kant calls 'synthesis' is introduced.
Readings from Critique of Pure Reason by Immanuel Kant:
(A56/B80) - General logic vs. transcendental logic
(A57/B82) - Brief but clear description of what transcendental logic is
(A58-59/B82-83) - A little about what truth is
(A77-79/B102-105) - Synthesis is introduced
Reading from A Treatise of Human Nature by David Hume:
Book I, Part III, Section VIII - Intensity of belief in terms of probability
