1. Introduction Kant considered the doctrine of transcendental
idealism an indisp- sable part of the theory of knowledge presented
in the Critique of Pure Reason. My aim in this book is to present a
new defense of the coh- ence and plausibility of Kant's
transcendental idealism and its indisp- sability for his theory of
knowledge. I will show that the main argument of the Transcendental
Aesthetic and the Transcendental Analytic is - fensible
independently of some of Kant's claims which are said to threaten
its coherence. I have undertaken an inquiry into the coherence of
Kant's transc- dental idealism for the following reasons. A defense
of the coherence of transcendental idealism is required by the
existing state of Kantian scholarship. The claim that Kant's
transcendental idealism is incoh- ent has appeared in various forms
over the last two centuries. The most powerful and elaborate
criticism of Kant's transcendental idealism is found in Part Four
of Strawson's The Bounds of Sense. Several comm- tators have tried
to reestablish its coherence. Although Allison and other
commentators have contributed ideas that are valuable for an 1
account of the coherence of Kant's transcendental idealism, their -
guments fall short as a response to the standard objection. Indeed,
the claim that Kant's transcendental idealism is incoherent
continues to be the view held by most thinkers. I have limited my
goal in this book to establishing the coherence of Kant's
transcendental idealism due to two related reasons.
