| Definition Of: |
DIVISION
[L:146] In addition to definitions, exposition, and descriptions, "the logical division of concepts" is a means of achieving perfection in cognition. For Kant, the logical division of a concept is "the determination of a concept with respect of everything possible contained under it, so far as the elements are opposed to one other". That is, every concept contains a manifold "under it", and the division of the concept involves the determination of all the different things under that concept's manifold.
