While he defines transcendental realism as ”which regards both time and space as something given in itself (independently of our sensibility). Hence the transcendental realist conceives outer appearances (if their actuality is granted) as things in themselves that exist independently of us and our sensibility, and that would, therefore, be outside us even according to pure concepts of understanding” (CPR A369: translation from Kant 1996. From the definition provided in CPR transcendental idealism and transcendental realism are two spectrums wherein the reality of something external to human perception can be claimed to be real. What does this mean? This claim can be made clear if we contrast Kant’s transcendental idealism with that of Hume’s AND Leibniz’s transcendental realism.

Hume’s transcendental realism holds that ideas always represent the object or impressions from which they are derived and that there will never be a case wherein an image of something can be applied to another. For example, X’s idea of a chair is derived from a form an object external to the human person perceiving the chair. The reality of the chair perceived is such that it is not supported by X’s perceiving the chair, rather it is objectively real, external to the perceiver. There is no abstraction of the material reality of the object. While Leibniz’s transcendental realism holds that at the bottom of all real via the proof of sufficient reason and what is real via the proof of reason is God. God becomes the penultimate reality with which all things, arguments, and all creation are guaranteed order, harmony and existence.

Kant’s transcendental idealism, on the other hand, holds, that what is real is that which appears. Things, as they are, cannot be known outside human sensibility. Things, as they appear, are dependent on the mind’s perception of the appearance.&nbsp.
