However, I ended up making it through the quarter, especially with a high grade. Before attending California State University, East Bay,

    Schopenhauer's Criticism of Kant's Analysis of Object Schopenhauer makes it clear that he is indebted to Kant for his vision of transcendental idealism, and that his Critique of Pure Reason [2] is a work of genius.

    However, there seems to be a foundational flaw in Kant’s logic that he uses to justify synthetic a priori statements, like the ones from above, that defeat the argument. The issue sprouts from how to think about a term's definition. Being true by definition is a quality of a priori knowledge and also analytic statements, but Kant, in a sense, is attempting to argue that not all things true by definition are analytic knowledge.
