Kant's final drafts, known as his Opus postumum, revolve around the
attempt to make a 'transition from the metaphysical foundations of
natural science to physics.' Interpreters broadly agree that in
this project Kant seeks to connect the general a priori principles
of natural science, as set out in the major critical works, to the
specific results of empirical physics. Beyond this, however, basic
interpretative issues remain controversial. This Element outlines a
framework that aims to combine the systematic ambition of early
twentieth-century readings with the rigour of more recent studies.
The author argues that the issue of the 'gap' that has animated
much recent scholarship can be profitably set aside. In its place,
they advocate renewed attention to what they claim is a crucial
part of the manuscript, fascicles X/XI, and to the problematic
'arrival point' of the transition, namely Kant's question: what is
physics?
