“…), in the chapter on 'Schematism' (A 137-47, B 176-87) and elsewhere, but this is too vast an issue to be addressed here. 27 For an account of Kant's concept of imagination, see Ferrarin (1995a;1995b). 28 As I have already stressed, this is not equal to saying that the categories are directly employed in sense perception, but that the pure intuitive synthesis carried out by the imagination results in relations that necessarily conform to the categories, even if the categories are not used in a judgment yet.…”

This article addresses Kant's distinction between a synthetic and an analytic method in philosophy. I will first consider how some commentators have accounted for Kant's distinction and analyze some passages in which Kant defined the analytic and the synthetic method. I will suggest that confusion about Kant's distinction arises because he uses it in at least two different senses. I will then identify a specific way in which Kant accounts for this distinction when he is differentiating between mathematical and philosophical syntheses. I will examine Kant's arguments in the Critique of Pure Reason with the latter sense of the distinction in mind. I will evaluate if he uses the analytic or the synthetic method and if the synthetic method is able to identify, without a previous consideration of some sort of given knowledge, sufficient conditions for deriving some aspects of our knowledge.

“…(Além dos mencionados artigos de Hintikka, cf. Parsons (1983), Ferrarin (1995), Pierobon (2003)). Hintikka distingue entre uma teoria preliminar da matemática de Kant, que sobreviveria, inclusive, na Doutrina Transcendental do Método, e uma teoria completa, que se encontraria na Estética Transcendental.…”

Neste artigo examinamos a presença de tópicos leibnizianos vinculados à noção de conhecimento simbólico, no texto pré-crítico de Kant intituladoInvestigação acerca da distinção dos princípios da teologia natural e da moral. Esses tópicos são: a função substitutiva dos signos; o conhecimento atingido por manipulação de signos (conhecimento simbólico); a certeza ad oculos própria de tal conhecimento e a forma ectética de representação. O exame mostra, no nosso entendimento, a proximidade das idéias defendidas por Kant na Investigação acerca do papel dos signos no conhecimento matemático com teses leibnizianas. AbstractIn this paper we examine the presence of leibnizian topics related to the notion of symbolic knowledge in Kant's precritical writing Enquiry Concerning the Distinctness of the Principles of Natural Theology and Ethics. These topics are: the surrogating function of signs; the knowledge obtained by manipulation of signs (symbolic knowledge); the ad oculos certainty of such knowledge and the ecthetical form of representation. Our analysis intends to show the affinity of the ideas defended by Kant in the Enquiry on the role of signs in mathematical knowledge with leibnizean theses.

“…Her later account thus agrees with mine (which was, however, developed independently). 35 Frank Leavitt ((1991), 650) and Alfredo Ferrarin ((1995), 143-5) emphasize that the Schematism is intended to explain both the recognition of objects as instances of concepts and the introduction of particulars within geometrical proof. See also Shabel (2006).…”
