The answers to ontological questions about knowledge are sought first by philosophizing, and then by philosophy. And then knowledge is determined. His interpretations are discussed from different philosophical positions. And philosophy itself is based on knowledge. One of the areas discussed in the article is idealistic - through Kant's generalizations. In the synthesized form, the Kantian concept of synthetic a priori is discussed. It expresses the essence of his views on the nature of scientific knowledge. In addition, his understanding of a priori forms of reasoning, categorical synthesis, and transcendental analytics is set forth.
