BONACCINI, Juan A.. Sobre o projeto kantiano de uma filosofia transcendental. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2013, vol.27, n.01, suppl., pp.211-231. ISSN 1982-596X.

It is well known that the Critique of pure reason presents quite a peculiar architectural structure. Yet, it is not always noticed that this is intrinsically connected to its argumentative strategy. Indeed, to justify the very idea of Transcendental Philosophy as the best available solution to the problem of metaphysical knowledge, Kant argues that one needs to find a specific and justifiable place for a priori knowledge in metaphysics. This can only be accomplished by abandoning the claim to knowledge of pure entities beyond experience and embracing the notion of a priori knowledge of the form of empirical objects. Accordingly, the paper reconstructs the general idea, the argumentative strategy and the methodological framework of the first Critique as a program for metaphysics as transcendental philosophy. It also suggests that the Critique operates as a general theory of a priori cognition, viz. as a meta-theory of rational knowledge that gives account for the most general and fundamental non-empirical conditions of objects and experience.
