  • Kant's Anatomy of the Intelligent Mind

    Richard Aquila, Richard E AquilaARTICLEThe Philosophical Review2015References: 1

    This study of Kant's first Critique is astounding in its originality. Wayne Waxman rightly asks readers “to unlearn virtually everything they think they know about the doctrines of the Transcendental Analytic and their role in the critical philosophy as a whole” (viii). Extending his previous work on Kant—Waxman's (1991) first book was focused more on Kantian imagination—the present book turns on a radically “New Understanding of Understanding” (…

  • The singularity and the unity of transcendental consciousness in Kant

    Richard Aquila, Richard E AquilaARTICLEHistory of European Ideas2004

    Transcendental consciousness is described by Kant as “the one single thing” in which “as in the transcendental subject, our perceptions must be encountered.” The unity of that subject depends on intellectual functions. I argue that its singularity is just the same as that of Kant's pre-intellectual “form” of spatiotemporal “intuition.” This may seem excluded by Kant's claim that it is through intellect that “space or time are first given as intui…

  • Hans Vaihinger and Some Recent Intentionalist Readings of Kant

    Richard Aquila, Richard E AquilaARTICLEJournal of the history of…2003Cited by: 2References: 8

    A standard view in contemporary moral philosophy is that a naturalistic account of human nature cannot be normative because there is an unbridgeable gap between explanations of what is the case and accounts of what ought to be. However, in Hume's account of the passions, specifically the passion of pride, he offers an account of our passional life that is descriptive yet value-laden. This enables what is a naturalistic account of human nature to,…

  • Unity of Apperception and the Division of Labour in the Transcendental Analytic

    Open AccessRichard Aquila, Richard E AquilaARTICLEKantian Review1997

    In the Critique of Fure Reason Kant distinguishes two sorts of conditions of knowledge. First, there are the space and time of pure intuition, introduced in the Transcendental Aesthetic. They are grounded in our dependence on a special sort of perceptual (or imaginative) field for the location of objects. Second, there are pure concepts of the understanding, or categories, introduced in the Analytic. In one respect these are grounded in the logic…

  • On Plotinus and the "Togetherness" of Consciousness

    Richard Aquila, Richard E AquilaARTICLEJournal of the history of…1992

    On Plotinus and the "Togetherness" of Consciousness RICHARD E. AQUILA PLOTINUS IS OFTEN assigned a special position in regard to the history of the concept of consciousness: "In Plotinus, for the first time in its history, psychology becomes the science of the phenomena of consciousness, conceived as selfconsciousness ",; before Plotinus, the notions of consciousness and self (moo had passed practically unnoticed among Greek philosophers;' Plotin…

  • Intentionality, Content, and Primitive Mental Directedness

    Richard Aquila, Richard E AquilaARTICLEPhilosophy and Phenomenological…1989

    I propose a way of looking at the opaque intentionality of sensory and certain sorts of imaginative mental states: as I shall put it, at the kind of that is, in such states, compatible with directedness toward what does not exist. The proposal requires a primitive quality of mental directedness. I show how this differs from certain conceptions of qualia in consciousness. I also show how it is consonant with some recently fashionable linguistic vi…
