Maimon's subversion of Kant's critique of pure reason
there are no synthetic a priori judgments in physics
pp. 144-175
Abstract
Maimon characterized his philosophical position as "rational dogmatism and empirical skepticism" (Tr, II, 436). In this paper I concentrate on the latter half of this description, and argue that Maimon's empirical skepticism subverts and jeopardizes Kant's project in the Critique of Pure Reason.1
