Transcendental deduction of predicative structure in Kant and Brandom

Fregean predicates applied to Fregean objects are merely defined by a ‘timeless’ deductive order of sentences. They cannot provide sufficient structure in order to explain how names can refer to objects of intuition and how predicates can express properties of substances that change in time. Therefore, the accounts of Wilson and Quine, Prior and Brandom for temporal judgments fail — and a new reconstruction of Kant’s transcendental logic, especially of the analogies of experience, is needed.
