InKant and the demands of self-consciousness, Pierre Keller examines Kant\u2019s theory of self-consciousness and argues that it succeeds in explaining how both subjective and objective experience are poss- ible. Previous interpretations of Kant\u2019s theory have held that he treats all self-consciousness as knowledge of objective states of a\ufb00airs, and also, often, that self-consciousness can be interpreted as knowledge of personal identity. By contrast, Keller argues for a new understanding of Kant\u2019s conception ofself-consciousness as the capacity to abstract not only from what one happens to be experiencing, but also from one\u2019s own personal identity. By devel- oping this new interpretation, Keller is able to argue that transcen- dental self-consciousness underwrites a general theory of objectiv- ity and subjectivity at the same time.
