Abstract
The theories of mind held by modern philosophers have been considered from a new point of view by the contemporary Cognitive Science. The kantian theory of mental activity, included his several faculties and the respective elements of these, have been studied as one of the more attractive proposal, considering his affinity with recent topics in Cognitive Science and the Philosophy of Mind, such as the modularity of faculties, the intentionality of mental representation, conceptual structure, and the representational theory of the mind. In this paper we review some relevant contemporary proposals on these topics (Hatfield 1992, Kitcher 1990 Meerbote 1991, Moya 2003, Redding 2001, Strawson 1966), and having in view Kant's theory about the mental, we point out some of the difficulties that contemporary thought at this respect may have to face.
