ABSTRACT

In modern western philosophy, the turn of epistemology is a major issue, and many philosophers are trying to find the most solid foundation for knowledge. However, with the continuous use and in-depth criticism of rational ability, it has shaken the entire knowledge building. At this time, Kant put forward the Copernicus revolution and asked to break the previous objective-centered cognitive research direction and turn to subject-centered, thus solving the philosophical crisis. Kant's idea is not his original creation, but a concentrated reflection of the development of human subjectivity throughout the history of western philosophy. This paper attempts to analyze the evolution of human subjectivity and the embodiment of subjectivity in Kant's Copernicus revolution, to show Kant's breakthrough achievements in this perspective, and the significance of today's research and life.
