Abstract

In this article, we have retraced the main moments of the Kantian analysis in the Transcendental Dialectic of the Critique of Pure Reason on the intrinsic relationship between the transcendental illusion and rational principles. Kant briefly treats the passage between the maxim of logic and the transcendental principle, which is of great importance for the characterization of the general mechanism of the transcendental illusion. After analyzing this passage in detail, we will then bring the interpretation of Grier (2001) on the transcendental illusion and the possible consequences of the Longuenesse (2003)’s critique of this interpretation.
