Jacob Walton A Transcendental Philosopher: Christopher McCandless The novel Into the Wild‚ by Jon Krakauer‚ is a story about a transcendental philosopher by the name of Christopher Johnson McCandless. The story follows the journey of McCandless across America; relying only on what he can carry on his back. McCandless shows self-reliance‚ a love of nature‚ and has withdrawn from society in many ways throughout the book. A very important characteristic of any transcendentalist is self-reliance.

Transcendental idealism In our talk about transcendental idealism we looked towards page 32 in Dicker‚ where we found the quotes of Kant saying that‚ "the conditions of space and time [are] conditions which are originally inherent in the subject." (A43/B60) Combined with Kant’s idea that "space and time are the necessary conditions of all outer and inner experience" (A48-49/B 66)‚ we found that we could understand what exactly Kant meant by his transcendental idealism. Essentially‚ space and

The proof that categories of the understanding and a transcendental unity of apperception are necessary condition for the possibility of experience is what Immanuel Kant claims to be the “Transcendental Deduction”. By this‚ Kant intends to address and attack one main problem: how we‚ as humans‚ can know that the categories apply to experience. From logic‚ we can easily conclude that empirical concepts are applicable to experience due to the simple fact that they are derived from experience in the

wishing only to be herself‚ Dickinson was following a transcendental ideal; she was being true to herself and being an individual at all costs‚ as opposed to conforming to a world of followers. Keeping Dickinson’s famous reclusively in mind‚ one could say that in her lifetime she was neither a leader nor a follower. Dickinson never tied herself to a specific school of thought or philosophy‚ she was simply herself. Perhaps that was transcendental.

After taking calculus for nearly two semesters‚ I discovered that I loved that subject far more than I had anticipated. By the end of my first semester‚ I knew that I wanted to pursue a major that had calculus at its core; but I also wanted it to expand and complicate the material that I had already learn. After some thought‚ I realized that I would be committed and superfluously content to pursue a degree in physics. When I first took the subject itself in high school‚ I found myself intrigued
