Abstract:
In this thesis I have argued that Kant and Berkeley both took our experience of things in space to be real and veridical. Further, and what I take to be the most striking conclusion from this thesis, is that in fact these two ‘idealists’ took the human body to play a constitutive role as a necessary condition for outer experience and our geometrical knowledge.
