Excerpt from The Works of Thomas Reid, D.D, Vol. 1: Now Fully Collected, With Selections From His Unpublished Letters

In shewing that the mind is not con scious of any real existence in perception that its representations are no guarantee for anything represented (idealism) Now Kant and Reid both combated Hume. Kant applied himself to the causal nexus; Reid to the idealism.

Shew how both were equally intent on shewing that causality is a real meces sity of mind. Though both only subjective, Kant more articulate.

How, in regard to idealism, Kant con firmed Hume, giving his premises, whereas Reid's doctrine, though confused and vacillating, was a real refutation.
