Critique Of The Kantian Philosophy
Arthur Schopenhauer appended a criticism to the first volume of his The World as Will and Representation. He wanted to show Immanuel Kant's errors so that Kant's merits would be appreciated and his achievements furthered.
At the time he wrote his criticism, Schopenhauer was familiar only with the second (1787) edition of Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. When he later read the first (1781) edition, he said that many of Kant's contradictions were not evident.

—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
