In his Inaugural Dissertation (On the Form and Principles of the Sensible and Intelligible World), Immanuel Kant claimed (for the last time, it seems) that our reason allows us to represent things as they are, as opposed to things as they appear. The model of cognition which he felt allowed him to make such a claim involved the distinct segregation of "sensible" objects and "intelligible" objects, with the distinct powers of "sensibility" and "intellect" having respective jurisdiction over them. If it is not the world of experience that provides the intellect with the objects of which its ideas are true, what reason is there for thinking that there are any such objects? A priori empirical analytic , and. Kant's Transcendental Dialectics.
Transcendental dialectics ‘Transcendental dialectic is not the art of producing dogmatically illusion, but a critique of understanding and reason in regard to their hyperphysical use’.
(p70CPR) ‘All our knowledge begins with sense, proceeds thence to understanding, and ends with reason.’ (CPR, p.211) Briefly, dialectics for Plato represented the highest degree of knowledge, for Aristotle it was a probabilistic syllogism, whereas for Kant it is the analysis of the obstacles to reason. There can be empirical illusory appearances (such as optical ones), but here Kant is concerned with transcendental illusory appearances, arising when ’the subjective necessity of a certain connection of our conceptions, is regarded as an objective necessity of the determination of things themselves.’ These illusions are impossible to avoid.

One of the most durable and intractable issues in the history of philosophy has been the problem of universals.
Closely related to this, and a major subject of debate in 20th century philosophy, has been the problem of the nature of the meaning. The problem of universals goes back to Plato and Aristotle. The matter at issue is that, on the one hand, the objects of experience are individual, particular, and concrete, while, on the other hand, the objects of thought, or most of the kinds of things that we know even about individuals, are general and abstract, i.e. universals. Thus, a house may be red, but there are many other red things, so redness is a general property, a universal. There are also many houses, and even kinds of houses, so the nature of being a house is general and universal also.
Plato's answer to this was that universals exist in a separate reality as special objects, distinct in kind, from the things of experience. Critique of Pure Reason.

Immanuel Kant (1724–1804): Critique of Pure Reason and Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics. Summary Kant published the Critique of Pure Reason in 1781.
It is very long and almost unreadable due to its dry prose and complex terminology. Kant tried to ease his readers’ confusion by publishing the Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics two years later. While it is hardly a page-turner, the Prolegomena is much briefer than the Critique and much more accessible in style, making it a valuable entry point to Kant’s metaphysics and epistemology.
