Kant and His English Critics - A Comparison of Critical and Empirical Philosophy

This book contains John Watson’s 1881 treatise, “Kant and His English Critics—A Comparison of Critical and Empirical Philosophy”. A fascinating comparison of critical and empirical philosophy, Watsons’s work endeavors to tackle some of the contemporary criticism of Kant’s work, and does so in an engaging and meaningful manner. This volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in nineteenth century philosophy, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: “The Problem and Method of the Critique of Pure Reason—Mr. Balfour’s Criticism of the Transcendental Method”, “The Priori Conditions of Perception—Mr. Sidewick’s View of the Refutation of Idealism”, “The a Priori Conditions of Knowledge in General—The Categories and Schemata”, etcetera. Many antiquarian texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
