Book excerpt: Excerpt from Immanuel Kant, His Life and Doctrine This work was written by Professor Paulsen for Frommann's Klassiker der Philosophie, and forms the seventh volume of that series. The series, which corresponds in general with Blackwood's Philosophical Classics, has been as a whole cordially welcomed in Germany, and Paulsen's Kant in particular has met with the warmest reception both from critics and from general readers of Kant's philosophy. It has been pronounced the crown of the series. The book possesses several characteristics which seem to make it especially valuable for English readers. In the first place, the author brings together and utilizes the more important results of the detailed investigations which have been carried on in Germany in recent years. Secondly, he has not restricted his account to the critical methodology, but has also treated Kant's philosophy as a whole, and has emphasized the constructive side of his metaphysics. Thus the critical and agnostic elements of Kant's thought are subordinated to a positive and idealistic metaphysic. The author's power of separating what is permanent and essen tial from what is merely external and accidental is well known to English readers through Professor Thilby's excellent translations of his Introduction to Philosophy and Ethics. This gift is nowhere more clearly manifested or its value more evident than in the present exposition of the Kantian system.

FIRST SECTION THE EPISTEMOLOGY Kant is the founder of epistemology in Germany. Of course not in the sense that investigations of this sort were not in existence before his time. Reflections about the nature and possibility of knowledge have everywhere accompanied philosophical speculation. But Kant was the first among the German philosophers to separate these reflections from metaphysics, and to make of them an independent discipline, -- not indeed under the name of 'epistemology' (which first came into use in the second half of our century), but under the title 'transcendental philosophy.' The concept 'transcendental' was coined by him to indicate an investigation devoted, not to objects themselves, but to the form of our knowledge, particularly to the form and possibility of pure rational knowledge. Unfortunately, Kant did not make the form of empirical knowledge the object of his investigation; otherwise new and more definite problems would have arisen for his transcendental theory. On the other hand, the transcendental philosophy has retained a very essential relation to metaphysics. Indeed, it may be said that in a certain sense it has absorbed the old metaphysics. Previously, at least in the dogmatic philosophy, the reverse relation existed; metaphysics contained in itself the theory of knowledge, while with Kant all the chief problems of metaphysics appear in the Critique, -- the ontological as well as the psychological, cosmological, and theological. Unfortunately, again, metaphysical problems demand an independent treatment, not merely an epistemological one. With Kant their rights are not fully recognised; they are not considered from the standpoint of their own nature, but settled from the transcendental point of view. The...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Immanuel Kant Within one hundred years after the publication of "Kritik of Pure Reason" no biography of its author has appeared in the English language. Even in Germany, where his philosophy is studied so extensively and has been the occasion of an immense number of works, but little attention has been paid to the life of Kant, and the biographies of him are far from being satisfactory. It is not difficult to discover the reasons for the neglect of the biography of this great thinker and eminent scholar. The materials for such a work are widely scattered, and require much research; and one may glean long and on many a field, and, as the result of his labours, bring home only a light sheaf, and even that nearly all straw. The difficulty is by no means over when the materials have been found. Not only are there numerous conflicting statements, owing largely to the contentions occasioned by his philosophy and the prejudices which they aroused, but there is also a lack of the variety and incident which are commonly regarded as essential to an interesting biography.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Here is the first Kant-biography in English since Paulsen’s and Cassirer’s only full-scale study of Kant’s philosophy. On a very deep level, all of Cassirer’s philosophy was based on Kant’s, and accordingly this book is Cassirer’s explicit coming to terms with his own historical origins. It sensitively integrates interesting facts about Kant’s life with an appreciation and critique of his works. Its value is enhanced by Stephen K�rner’s Introduction, which places Cassirer’s Kant-interpretation in its historical and contemporary context.”--Lewis White Beck "The first English translation (well done by James Haden) of a 60-year-old classic intellectual biography. Those readers who know Kant only through the first Critique will find their understanding of that work deepened and illuminated by a long explication of the pre-critical writings, but perhaps the most distinctive contribution is Cassirer’s argument that the later Critiques, and especially the Critique of Judgment, must be understood not as merely applying the principles of the first to other areas but as subsuming the latter into a larger and more comprehensive framework.”--Frederick J. Crown, The Key Reporter "Kant’s Life and Thought is that rare achievement: a lucid and highly readable account of the life and work of one of the world’s profoundest thinkers. Now for the first time available in an admirable English translation, the book introduces the reader to two of the finest minds in the history of philosophy.”--Ashley Montagu

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction by Allen W. Wood With translations by F. Max Müller and Thomas K. Abbott The writings of Immanuel Kant became the cornerstone of all subsequent philosophical inquiry. They articulate the relationship between the human mind and all that it encounters and remain the most important influence on our concept of knowledge. As renowned Kant scholar Allen W. Wood writes in his Introduction, Kant “virtually laid the foundation for the way people in the last two centuries have confronted such widely differing subjects as the experience of beauty and the meaning of human history.” Edited and compiled by Dr. Wood, Basic Writings of Kant stands as a comprehensive summary of Kant’s contributions to modern thought, and gathers together the most respected translations of Kant’s key moral and political writings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of Immanuel Kant That he has disregarded this warning. There are no short - cuts to the understanding of a great philosopher, and the only way to appreciate the greatness of a philosophic system is to study the philosopher's own writings. All that the writer of a book like this can hope to do is to persuade others to undertake that study by interesting them in the problems with which it deals, and by offering a few suggestions which may help to an understanding of it. I have said nothing about the numerous other works which Kant wrote. For the three Critiques contain his system, and the under standing oi that is all-important.

Download or read book Kant A Biography written by Manfred Kuehn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-03-19 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first full-length biography in more than fifty years of Immanuel Kant, one of the giants amongst the pantheon of Western philosophers as well as the one with the most powerful and broad influence on contemporary philosophy. It is well known that Kant spent his entire life in an isolated part of Prussia living the life of a typical university professor. This has given rise to the view that Kant was a pure thinker with no life of his own, or at least none worth considering seriously. In this biography, Manfred Kuehn debunks that myth once and for all. Taking account of the most recent scholarship Professor Kuehn allows the reader (whether interested in philosophy, history, politics, German culture, or religion) to follow the same journey that Kant himself took in emerging as a central figure in modern philosophy.

The supreme importance which he himself attached to these subjects, and the light which his moral and religious views throw on his mind and heart, make it the more necessary to give them a prominent place in his biography. The fact that he did not establish morality and religion on a firm speculative basis, and that in some respects his efforts to do so reveal his weakness rather than his strength, does not in the least justify MORAL AND THEOLOGICAL INFLUENCE. 311 a neglect of these subjects here where the interest is not centred on the truth of the system but on the character of its author.
