CRITICISM OF THE KANTIAN PHILOSOPHY by Arthur Schopenhauer
Immanuel Kant (1724–1804) was a German philosopher, who, according to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy is “the central figure of modern philosophy.” Kant argued that fundamental concepts of the human mind structure human experience, that reason is the source of morality, that aesthetics arises from a faculty of disinterested judgment, that space and time are forms of our understanding, and that the world as it is “in-itself” is unknowable. Kant took himself to have effected a Copernican revolution in philosophy, akin to Copernicus' reversal of the age-old belief that the sun revolved around the earth.
