Kant's Theory of Knowledge

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.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
