Hot off the press: my review of Marcus Willaschek's Kant: A Revolution in Thinking appears in the Claremont Review of Books. In it I argue Kant's transcendental idealism creates a claustrophobic metaphysics, offer a Thomistic critique and close reading of key passages. UPDATE 12/20: unlocked
Rolly's Take
This blog resonates with those who wander through the intricate labyrinth of philosophical thought, seeking to untangle the threads of metaphysics and epistemology. It speaks to the intellectually curious, the type who finds joy in the clash of ideas and the subtle dance between reason and skepticism. Here, a nuanced exploration of Kant’s ideas meets a critique steeped in Thomistic insight, inviting readers to reconsider established paradigms while navigating the claustrophobic corridors of philosophical discourse. For the reflective thinker, each post offers a chance to delve deeper, igniting a spark of inquiry that lingers long after the reading ends.
