Transcendental Idealism Vs Rationalism

My definition of knowledge is information or awareness a person has acquired through experience. A couple of important views on the basis of knowledge includes rationalism and transcendental idealism. Rationalism is defined in the book by being the view that knowledge can be obtained through reason, not by the aid of the senses.

They believe we can gain knowledge by looking into our minds without observing or experiencing the world. A very important key to the rationalist argument is mathematics, also known as the realm of knowledge. The knowledge of mathematics is attained by reason only. For example, a mathematician can discover new, exciting theorems in their own minds without stepping foot outside and experiencing the world. Rationalists also believe in innate ideas. Innate ideas are truths and ideas that your mind knows from birth without relying on outside senses. Rationalists that believed in innate ideas included: Plato, Descartes, Leibniz, and Jain Philosophers. Leibniz was not willing to agree that innate ideas are

Another key reason for the mind to have structure or reason, is that our sense can give us smells, tastes, and shapes but it cannot show us the relationships of objects. The mind has to contribute to our knowledge because we need to show that objects are related to each
