Kant's Island

This example that we created in class. If you dont remember, is the circle explaining possible experience.We painted this illustrious picture depicting the circle within it being possible phenomena and emperically possible, over all things that can be known stay inside the circle of possible experience. While on the outside remains the understanding categories and Hume's causality. He explains his island in the book in the beginning of chapter III, Transcendental Doctrine of Judgement, "This domain is an island, enclosed by nature itself within unalterable limits. It is the land of truth-enchanting name!-surrounded by a wide and stormy ocean, the native home of illusion, where many a fog bank and many a swiftly melting iceberg give the deceptive appearance of farther shores, deluding the adventuurous seafarer ever anew with empty hopes, and engaging him in enterprises which he can never abandon et is unable to carry to completion"(257).
