KANT ET LE PROBLÈME DE L’INTELLIGIBLE
KANT AND THE PROBLEM OF INTELLIGIBLE

Summary/Abstract: Kant and the Problem of Intelligible. This study starts from noticing the multiple meanings of the object with Kant. The study reveals the intelligible object as the ideal reference of these meanings. Being determinable only negatively, the intelligible object is still only a possibility. However, even if as simple possibility, this should necessarily be supposed due to the imperfection of the object character of the accessible objects of human knowledge. This way we can establish an essential link between the diverse senses of the object of human knowledge (sensitive, intellectual) and a supposed intelligible object. The intelligible object indeed is not only intellectual but also concrete, as well as an knowledgeable object, even if the possibility of its existence does not refer, on the other hand, to something known. Being recognized in this way due to each of the multiple significances of the object, the intelligibile object may not be reduced to any of them.
