# Schema (Kant) |  | In Kantian philosophy, a transcendental schema is the procedural rule by which a category or pure, non-empirical concept is associated with a sense impression. A private, subjective intuition is thereby discursively thought to be a representation of an external object. Transcendental schemata are supposedly produced by the imagination in relation to time. | |-|-| | | wikipedia:: [Schema (Kant)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schema_(Kant)) |
