STRAULINO, Stéfano. The Role of the Notion of Truth in the Project of Kant’s Critical Philosophy. Tópicos (México) [online]. 2019, n.56, pp.49-74. ISSN 0188-6649.  https://doi.org/10.21555/top.v0i56.954.

The discussion about Kant’s theory of truth usually revolves around his ascription to some version of the coherence or correspondence theory of truth, and the matching criteria of truth. These discussions often deliberate which theory of truth is most appropriate given the critical principles. Instead, this paper aims to exhibit, through the evolution of Kant’s notion of truth in his precritical years and through the project of a transcendental logic, the intrinsic relation between the notion of truth and the very principles of critical philosophy; and to raise again the questions about the definition and the criteria of truth, but in the framework of the question of the possibility of truth.

Keywords : Kant; precritical Kant; object; transcendental logic; truth; truth criteria.
