The Kantian Dismissal of Idealism
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper presents two claims: first of all, that the “Refutation of Idealism” and the “Fourth Paralogism” develop two distinct anti-skeptical strategies. While the first one tries to “refute” the skeptical challenge, the second one tries to “dismiss” it. Secondly, it attempts to show that, unlike the “Refutation of Idealism”, the “Fourth Paralogism” is designed to undermine “transcendental realism”, which, according to Kant, is the source of “transcendental illusions” like antinomies and paralogisms.
