| contents | <p><span lang="EN-IN">Kant’s epistemological framework is concerned with analyzing the a priori synthesis principles, avoiding any potential epistemological benefits for the time being. All a priori knowledge must be tested using this framework in order to separate accurate knowledge from false information. It is comparable to a catharsis of all potential mistakes that could exist in the knowledge being examined. In this way, Kant’s critical philosophy has proved to be a landmark in the history of western philosophy. Kant, then, moved ahead on the more ambitious task of building a comprehensive system of transcendental knowledge that allows for the testing of both analytical and synthetic judgments as having values or not. He wants to deal with synthetic judgments that are endowed with absolute necessity, which can only be accomplished by a tangible system, as we come across in science. Kant proposed various definitions of analytic propositions. He considers analytic propositions as tautologies. In this paper, analytic propositions have also been explored from epistemological point of view. Semantic definition of analytic propositions has also been depicted in this paper. </span>The advancement is in terms of the addition of the epistemic term <em>a priori</em> to analytic judgment; that shows a necessary relationship between the subject and the predicate term. This is Kant’s original contribution to epistemology. </p> |
