Abstract

The text’s main goal is to show how a seemingly formal problem which arises in the british philosophical ambient – the fitness between the philosophical concept and its exposition – leads to the question of the relationship between philosophy and common sense. The suggestion here is that this discussion, as it appears in Shaftesbury and Hume, is central to the genesis of the formulation of the transcendental concept of finality in Kant’s Critical philosophy.
