I examine chapters I and II of the Dialectic of Pure Practical Reason from the Critique of Practical Reason, to show that Kant resolved the antimony of practical reason by first giving an accurate representation of the cause of a properly moral act and then recognizing that this accurate representation raised further problems, problems that were anticipated by Rousseau, especially in his Reveries of a Solitary Walker. Rousseau’s reveries allowed Kant to explore, and to some extent overcome, the darker implications of their common understanding of virtue. In the second Critique this takes the form of explaining how one can understand and existentially achieve one’s own satisfaction based on contentment with oneself rather than enjoyment.

我从《实践理性批判》中考察了《纯粹实践理性辩证法》的第一章和第二章，以表明康德通过首先准确地描述适当的道德行为的原因，然后认识到这种准确的道德行为的原因来解决实践理性的矛盾。表征提出了进一步的问题，卢梭预见到的问题，特别是在他的《孤独行者的遐想》中。卢梭的遐想使康德得以探索并在某种程度上克服了他们对美德的共同理解的黑暗含义。在第二个批判中，它采取的形式是解释一个人如何能够理解并基于对自己的满足而不是享受而在存在上实现自己的满足。
