David asked:

Does Kant's Critique of Judgmentcomplete his "critical philosophy" as he claims it did?

===========

Suppose you were in this situation: you have analyzed processes of thought to the extent that
everything seems determined by rules, but you do not know how to relate those rules to truth; they
are internal rules, rules of the mind. Yet you are faced with the undeniable fact that humans seem to
be able to determine truth. Not only that, but humans seem to be able to find new truths. The world is
unknowable, the mind works through knowable and deterministic rules, yet we find truths; indeed, we
discover new truths about the world. Now what? All one can say, it seems, is that somehow, the
occasional genius, because of some unanalyzable connection to reality, is able to grasp truth, and
that grasping cannot be through those rules; indeed, if it is a new truth, it must alter some of them, at
least some of the more superficial. Does that answer complete the Critical Philosophy? You tell me.
Because that's Kant's answer in the Critique of Judgment.
