Kant's Critique of Pure Reason

Kant's *Critique of Pure Reason* explores how we acquire knowledge and understand the world. He argues that our mind actively shapes experiences through innate concepts called "categories" and structures like space and time. While our senses provide raw data, it is our mind’s organizing power that makes knowledge possible. Kant distinguishes between things as they are in themselves (which we can't fully know) and how they appear to us through our perception. The work aims to clarify the limits and scope of human understanding, bridging empirical experience and rational thought in a systematic way.
