The Faculties of the Human Mind and the Case of Moral Feeling in Kant's Philosophy

This work shows the inconsistencies between the psychological and anthropological ways of interpreting Kant’s pure philosophy. It is argued that Kant’s philosophy can be understood only in the context of his theory of the faculties, including their purely formal and rational use. Against this background, Kant’s concept of moral feeling is clarified in the context of his cognitivist moral theory.
