Abstract

The article aims to present and discuss Zeljko Loparic’s interpretation of Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason as a transcendental semantics. The essay is organized in four sections. The first introductory section presents briefly the motivations of the project of a transcendental semantics. The second and third sections are devoted, respectively, to the doctrinal and heuristic canons of transcendental semantics. In the last section I try to indicate briefly some consequences of this project.
