The God-World Paradigm and the Conditions of Human Action in the Opus Postumum

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: By examining the „absolute whole”, conceived by Kant for his system of transcendental philosophy, we become aware of the way we act to satisfy the highest point of this system, which is identified with God and man. This is wisdom in the highest degree, which the Opus Postumum takes as its target. It was possible thanks to the reorientation of his system from metaphysics to transcendental philosophy itself. Owing to the change in orientation, the three transcendental ideas, which satisfied the critical purpose of metaphysics, have been replaced with the God-world paradigm in order to fulfil the final purpose of his system, namely, to prepare the practical action, initiated in the Metaphysics of Morals and accomplished in the Opus Postumum.
