[ send me this paper ]

report discusses Immanuel Kant�s meaning regarding the �two pure
forms of sensible intuition� being �a priori knowledge� and
�time� as discussed in his Critique of Pure Reason published in
1781. Kant (1724-1804) believed individual thought to be the
framework by which the individual was able to determine the
appropriate category into which one thought process or pattern
would fit over another. One of his first statements in the
Critique is that: �In the order of time, therefore, we have no
knowledge antecedent to experience, and with experience all our
knowledge begins.� This paper looks at what he means by such a
ststaement and how it relates to the nature and relaity of space
and time. Bibliography lists one source.

Kant and Hume: A comparison of views on Ethics :
[ send me this paper ]
The study of Ethics is an inquiry into the foundations of values. It is a concern with the eventual outcome of the action and experience of every day life. Ethics is inherently connected with every science : economic, political, religious and spiritual, to name only a few. This 6 page paper argues that Kant's ideas were, in effect, superimposed by the theories presented by Hume. Hume built on the empirical foundation of Kant and added the belief that morality is a consequence of emotion and exceeds the reasoning abilities in scope and function. Despite Kant's opposition to this view of morality, Hume has presented a wider and more comprehensive understanding. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
