Abstract

My respect for Maimon’s talents knows no bounds. I firmly believe that he has completely overturned the entire Kantian philosophy as it has been understood by everyone until now, including you, and I am prepared to prove it. No one noticed what he had done; they had looked down on him from their heights. I believe that future centuries will mock us bitterly.4
