Thank you Christopher Satoor for organizing such an intriguing talk, and thank you Colin McQuillan for your perspective and your rich comments on Kantian philosophy. Listening to you helps me a great deal in my studies on Kant, and it is always wonderful to hear both the different interpretations and interesting details regarding Kant's life.
Dear Bensu! Thank you for your helpful comment, I am happy to hear that this video was helpful for you. Part of this project was to create a space for both students and scholars to have access to material that can help flesh out a particular philosopher. Colin is both gracious and brilliant! I would love to hear about your own studies. What are you working on? My motto in life, and in my own studies is this that we "all" are students in philosophy, even after our dissertations. All the best
@@TheYoungIdealist I couldn't agree more. I am really still a student though, currently writing my MA thesis on Kant and Bergson's philosophies on the perception of time (and space). So, my main focus in Kant is the "Transcendental Aesthetic" in his first Critique. What really interested me in this talk with Prof. McQuillan is hearing that Kant's answers are not merely directed to Hume, Leibniz, Newton, and so on, but rather to his German contemporaries. He of course mentions the former a lot, but that's only half of the picture. And as someone who aspires to be a Kantian scholar, I now know that I will definitely learn more about his background. Best,
