this sounds to me like a logical positivism paper that foregrounds how kant came to function as the exemplar of an earlier philosophy of science. if that's true, then it really isn't a kant paper, but a rereading of kant via the logical positivists. are you reading anyone who wrote on the philo of mathematics (russell, etc.?)--i frankly dont know how i would go about this paper without such referencepoints--without them, it seems like you are being asked to derive the logical positivist critique of kant. which is strange, both in itself and in that logial positivism encompasses a range of work--it is a kind of loose category.
btw: i didnt mean what i wrote earlier to be a criticism--i was simply noting a concern.
