References

1 Grenberg only mentions Rousseau in a footnote (87).

2 Grenberg contrasts the Second Gallows Case with the most hardened scoundrel in Groundwork, 4: 454–5 (see especially ch.7). From these two cases ‘very different conclusions’ (178) can be drawn.

3 See for instance 4: 403, 4: 421–3, 5: 27, 5: 36, 5: 44, 5: 69.

4 This claim also does not sit well with certain passages in the second Critique in which Kant states that respect for the moral law has no epistemic function (5: 76. 16–23). Overall, textual evidence in the second Critique for the epistemic function of respect is, admittedly, ambiguous.
