The discussion on the idea includes two questions: the relationship between ideas with actually objects and the relationship between the world of ideas with actually world.On this issue,Plato completely divided the world into the world of ideas and actually world in his earlier works.In this theory,the world of ideas cut itself off from the actually world.The denial of sense and experience makes the idea become idol although the transcendence of idea is faintly included in this theory.In his lately works,Plato tried to connect them through the theory of participation or the theory of recollection or the theory of creationism.However the works got the failure: the transcendence of idea was taken away.The two failures make the idea of good just become empty.In the terms of actually world,the idea is merely a castle in the air.While in Kant's works,he takes perceptual intuition and categories away from the idea and reserves the transcendence of the idea.Kant inherited Plato's binary world,but there is effectiveness included in these two worlds: the law of nature and the law of free will possess their own territory.With this,Kant makes sure of the effectiveness of empirical world and makes room for the world of ideas.
