Question
What is the author's stance regarding Kant's views on the objectivity of external world?
 
Options:
A .  The author criticises Kant for his belief that the external world is objective.  
B .  The author believes that the external world is ontologically objective which disagrees with Kant's opinion that it is relationally objective.  
C .  The author partially agrees with Kant's views but believes that his view is not consummate.  
D .  The author disagrees with Kant's views as he believes that the external world is not objective.
E .  No wonder that centuries after it happened, the Black Death is still a bestseller.
Answer: Option C
:
C
Look at these lines -
"This relational objectivity does not necessary imply an ontological objectivity. Kant can defend his view of the external world against idealism, so long as he frames the charge of idealism at the relational qualities of objectivity."
The author states that Kant can defend his theory of objectivity of external world but it does not imply ontological objectivity.
So he partially agrees with Kant but believes that Kants views are not complete.
The author doesn’t exactly criticize Kants view as he himself later says that the external world is ontologically objective.
(c) is a more correct answer compared to (b).
