Kant, Hume, and the Interruption of Dogmatic Slumber

ISBN: 9780190096748 出版年：2020 页码：205 Anderson, Abraham Oxford University Press

This book provides an examination of Hume's influence on Kant's philosophy, arguing that Hume inspired Kant's Critique of Pure Reason not by challenging empirical knowledge, but by attacking metaphysics and the proofs of the existence of God. It posits that both Kant and Hume were primarily interested not in skepticism about science or ordinary experience, but in a question of much greater existential and political importance: whether the belief in God can be based on proof.
