ARIAS ALBISU, Martín. A Relation of Homogeneity between Heterogeneous Terms: The Concept of Homogeneity in the Schematism Chapter in the Critique of Pure Reason. Diánoia [online]. 2009, vol.54, n.63, pp.71-88. ISSN 0185-2450.

This paper deals with the concept of homogeneity (Gleichartigkeit) used by Kant in the schematism chapter of the Critique of Pure Reason. I discuss two recent papers that address the same problem. I show that, according to Kant, homogeneity consists in a relation between two heterogeneous terms (the category and the empirical manifold) made possible by the introduction of a third element (the transcendental schema). I claim that such a peculiar relation of homogeneity does not entail the suppression of the heterogeneity (in the usual meaning of the word) between the terms linked by it.
