Sustancialidad del alma y validez objetiva de las categorías: la Lógica trascendental de Kant a mediados de la década silenciosa (ca. 1775)

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to establish the argument that Kant develops in the Reflections of the Duisburger-Nachlass (ca. 1775) regarding the Objective Validity of the Categories and to evaluate the development of the Transcendental Logic reached at that moment. I claim that at this point Kant still considers the possibility of knowing the Substantiality of
the Soul, making impossible the identification of the development of the Transcendental Logic reached by the middle 1770 with that of the KrV. Nevertheless I argue that the argument that Kant develops in Reflections of the Year 1775 rests upon the fundamental idea that Kant will later place at the basis of the Transcendental Deduction of the Categories in
the KrV. The main claim of this paper about the development of the Transcendental Logic is that by the middle 1770 Kant had already reached the essential ideas of the first part of the Transcendental Logic: The Transcendental Analytic.
