"As the preeminent Enlightenment philosopher, Immanuel Kant is famous for emphasizing
that each and every one of us is called to "make use of one's own understanding without
direction from another" (Enlightenment, 8:35). We are all called to make up our own
minds, independently from the external constraints imposed on us by others. In the
face of this Enlightenment calling, much of Kant's philosophy then reads as a manual
for how to employ one's mental faculties in the proper way - faculties that are supposed
to be universally realized by all human beings. Given his focus on a universal conception
of the human mind, Kant tells us surprisingly little about what makes us the unique
individual persons we are and how we come to know ourselves as such. This book explores
Kant's distinctive account of psychological personhood by unfolding, in accordance
with the tenets of his Critical philosophy, his account of empirical self-knowledge
as the knowledge that one has of oneself as a unique psychological person"
