Abstract

The principle of transcendental method describes Kant's aesthetics of seeking the conditions of the possibility of our knowledge of the world and recognizes that there are things that transcend the limits of our cognitive faculties.Kant argues that sensibility is the understanding's means of accessing objects.The empiricist might object at this point by insisting that such concepts do arise from experience,raising questions about Kant's claim that the mind brings an a priori conceptual structure to the world.
