| Research Abstract |
The intention of this research program is to investigate the context of Kantian philosophy.We found out the fact that the content of Kantian Philosophy is closely connected with his life.We also found out the principle of Kant's Philosophy that 'Kausalitat aua Freiheit' is a consitutive condition for the cognition of human acts.When we read the Kant's texts with interests about various arguments concerning the problem of human actions, we are obliged to pay attentions to the Kantian attitude that he uses the term 'Freiheit' in order to understand the moral possibility of human actions.Kant's practical philosophy is, as is well-known the fact about his theoretical philosophy, ab answer to the Humean question.The Humean question is the problem to demonstrate how the reason of human being reconstructs itself faced with the chaos of human passion (or'Neigungen' in Kantian teminology).We must not forget the fact that Kant's conception about the belief of the reason consitutes the fundament of his moral thinking as a whole.Kantian philosophy, as is well known, exercises his influence on his folllowers.First of all, Kantian conception about the transcendental subject and its self-reference -structure is the central point of the German Idealism.Fichte's theory of 'Ich', Hegel's theory of reflection, we can consider all of these enterprises as variety of essays to answer to the Kantian problem.We can also interpret the Husserl's theory about the phenomenological reflection as a contemporary answer to the very question.
