Re-Immersion Therapy via the Critique of Pure Reason

Details

YES, IT'S BACK AGAIN!

ANOTHER DEEP DIVE INTO KANT'S CRITIQUE OF PURE REASON.

My style is one of slow reading and immersion into the text. This meetup will take place every two weeks. During that time, I will assign between 10 to 15 pages of reading. When we meet live, we start at the first page of the reading and go as far as we can. Odds are we won't finish discussing all of the assigned reading in one session, which means that you all will be responsible for finishing that on your own and bringing questions about what we haven't covered, or even what we have covered, to the subsequent meeting.

I am using the Cambridge Guyer/Wood translation which includes both the first (A) and a second (B) additions. I will provide universal references to accommodate whatever translation you use.

OUR FIRST READING ASSIGNMENT

I'm not going to assign the preface, but I encourage you to read it and bring any questions you have about it. Otherwise, we will begin our discussion with the introduction. So please read

Introduction A and first three sections of Introduction B
In Guyer, pages 127 through 141
Standard, Paras A 1 - A16 and B1 - B10

Remember to bring oxygen tanks! Disorientation is common at these altitudes!
