.| Now, although this idea of the sum-total of all possibility, in so far as it forms the condition of the complete determination of everything, is itself undetermined in relation to the predicates which may constitute this sum-total, and we cogitate in it merely the sum-total of all possible predicates--we nevertheless find, upon closer examination, that this idea, as a primitive conception of the mind, excludes a large number of predicates--those deduced and those irreconcilable with others, and that it is evolved as a conception completely determined a priorI. Thus it becomes the conception of an individual object, which is completely determined by and through the mere idea, and must consequently be termed an ideal of pure reason. |
