Abstract

This Kant’s sentence that “Understanding is uncontent without Intuition and Intuition is blind without Understanding” is very famous. On this opinion, some contemporary commentators as Strawson, Warnock, Ewing proposed Kant as leather of positivism and folk language in which them transcendental metaphysics rejected as some meaningless sentences. In this paper I want to show there are some principal sentences as “Reason’ Ideas are belonging to faith”, “they are thinking” and “hierarchical use of ideas” that prove meaningful of transcendental metaphysics. Moreover, we can believe to transcendental metaphysics, however we say “Understanding is uncontent without Intuition”.
