My aim in this paper is to explode two myths about Kant. The first
myth is that Kant’s early pre-critical writings are uninteresting dogmatic
juvenelia written when Kant was under the spell of Leibniz and Wolff.
On the contrary, I find the pre-critical works interesting both in their
own right and for understanding the origins of Kant’s celebrated critical
system of philosophy. I also believe that, from his very first writings, the
pre-critical Kant broke from both Leibniz and Wolff. The second myth is
that Kant, as the paradigm of “Enlightenment rationality” either ignored
or evinced a hostile disdain for philospohical issues connected with our
embodiment. Although I am sympathetic with the feminist critics who
push this line, I believe that in this case they are dead wrong. Despite
appearances, Kant was very much concerned with the philosophical
significance of embodiment. I think that this concern manifested itself
throughout Kant’s career, although I admit that it is most evident in the
relatively litle-known early and late works
