Some have spent years studying Kant and his Categorical Framework for knowledge, first published in 1781. I am absolutely fascinated by the implications of Kant’s maddeningly simple chart. Can it be a framework for all knowledge? Can we somehow bring this structure into our modern, 21st century understanding of how we think about knowledge itself? I think we [...]
