Philosophers working within the pragmatist tradition have pictured
their relation to Kant and Kantianism in very diverse terms: some
have presented their work as an appropriation and development of
Kantian ideas, some have argued that pragmatism is an approach in
complete opposition to Kant. This collection investigates the
relationship between pragmatism, Kant, and current Kantian
approaches to transcendental arguments in a detailed and original
way. Chapters highlight pragmatist aspects of Kant's thought and
trace the influence of Kant on the work of pragmatists and
neo-pragmatists, engaging with the work of Peirce, James, Lewis,
Sellars, Rorty, and Brandom, among others. They also consider to
what extent contemporary approaches to transcendental arguments are
compatible with a pragmatist standpoint. The book includes
contributions from renowned authors working on Kant, pragmatism and
contemporary Kantian approaches to philosophy, and provides an
authoritative and original perspective on the relationship between
pragmatism and Kantianism.

This book presents a systematic interpretation of Charles S.
Peirce's work based on a Kantian understanding of his teleological
account of thought and inquiry. Departing from readings that
contrast Peirce's treatment of purpose, end, and teleology with his
early studies of Kant, Gabriele Gava instead argues that focusing
on Peirce's purposefulness as a necessary regulative (in the
Kantian sense) condition for inquiry and semiotic processes allows
for a transcendental interpretation of Peirce's philosophical
project. The author advances this interpretation through presenting
original views on aspects of Peirce's thought, including: a
detailed analysis of Peirce's 'methodeutic' and 'speculative
rhetoric, ' as well as his 'critical common-sensism'; a comparison
between Peirce's and James' pragmatisms in view of the account of
purposefulness Gava puts forth; and an examination of the logical
relationships that order Peirce's architectonic classification of
the sciences

In two often neglected passages of the Critique of Pure Reason,
Kant submits that the Critique is a 'treatise' or a 'doctrine of
method'. These passages are puzzling because the Critique is only
cursorily concerned with identifying adequate procedures of
argument for philosophy. In this book, Gabriele Gava argues that
these passages point out that the Critique is the doctrine of
method of metaphysics. Doctrines of method have the task of showing
that a given science is indeed a science because it possesses
'architectonic unity' - which happens when it realizes the 'idea'
of a science. According to Gava's novel approach, the Critique
establishes that metaphysics is capable of this unity, and his
reading of the Critique from this perspective not only illuminates
the central role of the Transcendental Doctrine of Method within
it, but also clarifies the relationship between the different parts
of the work.
