Xie Xialing, “On Kant's Duplicity of Human Being”
Kant's Moral Philosophy assumes that human being as person is sound. This is its culpability (Strafwürdigkeit). Person does wrong, body accepts punishment. The reason given by Kant is that the world of understanding contains the foundation of the world of sense. But the world of understanding isn't the world, which give us sensation. There must be another world, objects in which affect us. The punished body belongs to it. Thus the human being isn't twofold, but threefold. Kant's duplicity of the human being is imperfect. The unity of the threefold human being must be laid on a solid ground. I try to argue that the unity of human being is grounded on the unity of mental powers.
谢遐龄, “論康德人的存在二重性”
康德道德哲学设定，人作为人格的存在是 心智健全的。这就是 有错该受罚。于是，人格犯错，肉体受罚。 康德给出的理由是，知性世界是感性世界的基础。但是，知性世界不是给予我们感性的世界。一定有另外一个世界，那个世界中的对象刺激我们的感官（给予我们感觉）。被惩罚的肉体属于那个世界。因而人的存在不是二重的，而是三重的。关键在于物自体混淆了两层意义。人的三重存在之统一应当置于坚实的基础上。我试图论证，人的存在之统一建基于诸心智能力之统一上。
