The Doctrine of Self-positing and Receptivity in Kant's Late ...

analysis leads us to a number of insights that are particular to the doctrine itself, there are three main organizing topics developed during this analysis which are then connected to the work of these thinkers: first, the constructivist and genetic aspect of the subject‘s constitution of itself and of experience; second, the role of sensibility within the doctrine, which is both heightened and given its own object; and third, the physiological and embodied nature revealed in the subject‘s self-constitution, together with the anthropological implications of the doctrine itself. This project is the beginning of a larger investigation that brings into dialogue Kant‘s late thought and 20 th Century philosophers in order to expand the reach of critical philosophy into theoretical areas unanticipated by Kant himself.
Acknowledgments I am in the debt of three intellectuals without whose guidance, teachings, and thought this dissertation would have never come to fruition, and thus I want to express my immense gratitude to them. Edward S. Casey, thank you for your unfailing belief in me and encouragement to take philosophical risks, despite myself; for teaching me the subtleties and hidden turns in 20 th Century philosophy – where I ultimately found Kant; and your sensitivity to the conditions that affect minorities in our profession. Manfred Baum, thank you for teaching me most of what I know about Kant and opening up an entire world of what is intellectually possible when it comes to depth and breadth of knowledge. And Félix Duque Pajuelo, with whom I have only once exchanged e-mails for a rather mundane bureaucratic step, but whose work on the Opus postumum is seminal to the orientation of this project. I also thank Renato Rosaldo, who exemplifies the kind of intellectual and teacher I hope to approximate. The short path we crossed at Stanford has formed me in ways that are still unfolding and you have instilled in me an academic imperative that will undoubtedly continue to haunt – the question as to ―What is at stake?.‖ A very special thanks to my committee members: Jeffrey Edwards, Eduardo Mendieta, and Elaine Miller. I am grateful for your patience, incisive questions, and contributions to the present and future of this project. There are many more mentors along the way to whom I am in debt: Linda Alcoff, Jane Bennett, Bill Connolly, Román de la Campa, Cherríe Moraga, Joe Morton, Kelly Oliver, Mary Louise Pratt, John Rose, and Susan Stocker. Thank you for having opened worlds and doors for me and I hope I have not managed to disappoint you too much with this attempt to think through Kant‘s
