%X the article examines kant's notion of conceptual extension in order to determine a conception of predication that could integrate, in a coherent fashion, basic theoretical commitments of general logic as he conceived it and the central tenets of his transcendental logic. after a brief overview of the several characterizations of thatnotion in the kantian corpus, i distinguish three interpretative models concerning it in the literature. such models are criticized and their prospects of integrating kant's commitments in a fully satisfactory way are rejected. finally, i sketch an alternative account of kant's notion of conceptual extension, which respects the criteria of adequacy that guided the examination of the former models. it points, on its turn, to a revaluation of kant's notion of conceptual content.
