Note 16 — Chapter IX
Reading edition
It should be noted that in the last paragraph but one Kant does not say 'our knowledge that phenomena must have affinity is a consequence of our knowledge that there must be a synthesis of the imagination', but 'the affinity of all phenomena is a consequence of a synthesis in the imagination'. And the last paragraph precludes the view that in making the latter statement he meant the former. Cf. also A. 101, Mah. 196.
