In this paper, I will study the radical innovation of Kant's concepts of “faculty” and “mind” in the history of philosophy. With this aim, I will focus on the discussion concerning the debate on the faculties during the Eighteenth Century in Europe in general and particularly in Germany. I will end my analysis by noting how the term “faculty” can be rightly interpreted only in connection with Kant‟s pure philosophical treatment of the concept of Gemüt, which will be distinguished from an epigenetical, empirically characterized analysis of the human mind.

Abstract

In this paper, I will study the radical innovation of Kant's concepts of “faculty” and “mind” in the history of philosophy. With this aim, I will focus on the discussion concerning the debate on the faculties during the Eighteenth Century in Europe in general and particularly in Germany. I will end my analysis by noting how the term “faculty” can be rightly interpreted only in connection with Kant‟s pure philosophical treatment of the concept of Gemüt, which will be distinguished from an epigenetical, empirically characterized analysis of the human mind.
