94 HUMANISM 



Space is hopelessly and demonstrably antiquated and can 

 lend no support to the rest of his system. And should 

 we not henceforth take care to eschew the vice of talking 

 vaguely of space without specifying what kind of space 

 we mean, whether conceptual or perceptual, and what 

 form of each ? Even pedagogically, one would think, 

 there can no longer be any advantage in confusing what 

 is capable of being so clearly distinguished. 



It would exceed my limits if I were to try to investigate 

 whether Kant has not been guilty of a parallel confusion 

 between felt succession and conceptual time in his account 

 of the latter, still more were I to discuss whether after the 

 withdrawal of the forms of pure intuition any meaning 

 could continue to be assigned to the Kantian conception 

 of the a priori} I shall conclude, therefore, with the 

 hope that some of the many professed believers in the 

 Transcendental Aesthetic will not disdain to define their 

 position in face of the development of modern meta- 

 geometry.
