Between truth and illusion : Kant at the crossroads of modernity
The central questions of this text are "what is truth?" and "why do we value truth so highly?" Predrag Cicovacki approaches them not as isolated questions but as being closely related to what Kant considered to be the ultimate philosophical concern - what is means to be a human being.
