Abstract

The article deals with the relation between the monadist metaphysics of Leibniz with the early views of Kant, especially in the field of ontology. The special stress is put on two treatises of Kant, which are attributed to the so-called pre-critical period: Principiorum primorum cognitionis metaphysicae nova dilucidatio and Der einzig mögliche Beweisgrund zu einer Demonstration des Daseins Gottes. In both of them Kant encounters the problem of ontological argument for the existence of God, and, in result, the problem of reason for ontological argument as such. Although in these writings the philosopher does not take so critical stand as in The Critique of Pure Reason, but he also distances himself from Leibniz’s standpoint.
