Abstract

Kant shows a picture of mechanical nature in Newtonian Physics in Critique of Pure Reason and Prolegomena. One of the basic elements of this picture is principle of causality. This principle with other principles of understanding product the empirical knowledge. This principle is necessary and indispensable. However, in Critique of Judgment, he considered organisms and nature as a whole with other causality that is conscious. This paper wants to illustrate the contact between these two causalities in Kant's thought.
