Resumo

This paper researches Immanuel Kant’s conception of madness developed during his intellectual lifetime. In order to achieve satisfactory results in this task, the author adopts a naturalized interpretation of Kant’s transcendentalism developed in the works about this German philosopher of the Prof. Dr. Eugenio Moya Cantero. From this methodological point of view the author tries to reconcile two different and traditionally opposed research levels by Kant, i.e the empirical and the transcendental ones, the quid factiand the quid juris . And this reconciliation offers a picture of the human reason located in the nature and its history (evolution) and characterized by complexity, heterogeneity and dynamism, and in which madness appears, consequently, as a conflict of the reason wit h itself. The article concludes explaining the Kantian concept of positive unreason as the most serious kind of mental illness and showing both the influence and use of this concept in other scientific fields, like contemporary psychiatry.
