B 132 revisited

Justus Hartnack

pp. 288-294

The philosophic insight of this for the transcendental deduction rather important point is obscured by the psychological, or semi-psychological, language in which it is expressed. The word "representation" (Vorstellung) belongs to the psychologist's vocabulary rather than to the philosopher's. And how are we, in this context, to understand the crucial expression "I think"? The fact that, in Kant's words, it must be possible to accompany all my representations implies that it is a psychological occurrence.
