The article proposes an interpretation of Kant’s notions of form of, and formal intuition of space to explain and justify the claim that representing space as object requires a synthesis. This involves identifying the transcendental conditions of the analytic unity of consciousness of this formal intuition and distinguishing between it and its content. On this reading which builds upon recent proposals, footnote B160–1n. involves no revision of the Transcendental Aesthetic: space is essentially characterized by non-conceptual features. The article also addresses worries about the infinite magnitude and the unicity of space, by considering the characteristics and requirements of geometric constructions.

本文提出了对康德的空间形式和形式直觉概念的解释，以解释和证明将空间表示为对象需要综合的主张。这涉及到识别这种形式直觉的意识分析统一的先验条件，并区分它和它的内容。基于最近提案的阅读，脚注 B160-1n。不涉及对先验美学的修正：空间本质上是由非概念特征来表征的。本文还通过考虑几何构造的特征和要求，解决了对空间的无限大小和单一性的担忧。
