The Teleology of Reason

A Study of the Structure of Kant's Critical Philosophy

von

This work argues that teleological motives lie at the heart of Kant’s critical philosophy and that a precise analysis of teleological structures can both illuminate the basic strategy of its fundamental arguments and provide a key to understanding its unity. It thus provides, through an examination of Kant’s major writings, a detailed interpretation of his claim that philosophy in the true sense must consist of a teleologia rationis humanae.
