Noumenal ignorance

why, for Kant, can't we know things in themselves?

Alejandro Naranjo Sandoval , Andrew Chignell

pp. 91-116

In this chapter, Naranjo Sandoval and Chignell look at a few of the most prominent ways of articulating Kant's critical argument for Noumenal Ignorance – that is, the claim that we cannot cognize any substantive, synthetic truths about things in themselves – and then provide two different accounts of how to justify it.
