MOLEDO, Fernando. Kant and the “revolution in the way of thinking” (KRV B XI). An analysis of the general methodological and specific metaphysical meanings from a systematic and historical-evolutionist perspective. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2017, vol.66, n.164, pp.13-34. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v66n164.64859.

What is Kant referring to when, in the Preface to the Second Edition of the Critique of Pure Reason, he speaks of the “revolution in the way of thinking” that is needed for metaphysics to enter the path of science? Two meanings are possible. The first is a methodological one, which assumes that knowledge governs objects and would, therefore, extend to metaphysics. Applied to the latter, a more profound transformation is needed, one that would make it possible to speak of a specific metaphysical meaning entailing that knowledge constitutes the object of representations.

Palabras clave : I. Kant; critique; metaphysics; revolution..
