Kant’s theory that a priori concepts are not innate but are developed through cognitive power has been sorely neglected up to now, although this genetic conception of a priori can hardly be overestimated. Thus it is against this backdrop that Kant‹s famous question of 1772, asking how pure concepts can refer to objects, which led to the Copernican Revolution, becomes highly explosive. However the deduction of categories and ideas in the ›Critique of Pure Reason‹ is also the direct result of Kant‹s new theory of a priori.
