Several notes on Kant

Summary/Abstract: References to I. Kant’s critical metaphysics are a significant part of D. Isac’s philosophical notes, lectures, articles, books, and other writings. The brief writings mentioned above likely served as nuclei for the extended works the author developed both during the interwar years and later in the post-war period. Although these sketches in nuce do not appear to have been intended for publication, their release offers valuable insights into the impact of Kant’s philosophy on Isac’s professional development, as it influenced many thinkers of his generation. The Romanian professor sought to rethink and redirect the course of genuine criticism by theorizing what he termed critical realism, a “marriage” of ontological realism and epistemological idealism/transcendentalism. Thus, these unpublished notes provide a window into Isac’s general approach to philosophizing, and specifically his reflections on Kant – whether in alignment with or departure from Kantian thought. The notes encompass the main coordinates of Kant’s scientific and philosophical activity, along with observations on various Romanian and foreign commentators, as well as general theses on the spirit of criticism. Together with other partially published manuscripts, these notes appear to be part of a broader project formulated by Isac: to write a history of universal philosophy from the perspective of critical realism.
