The fundamental task of philosophy since the seventeenth century has
been to determine whether the essential principles of both knowledge
and action can be discovered by human beings unaided by an external
agency. No one philosopher contributed more to this enterprise than
Kant, whose Critique of Pure Reason (1781) shook the very foundations
of the intellectual world. Kant argued that the basic principles of
the natural science are imposed on reality by human sensibility and
understanding, and thus that human beings are also free to impose
their own free and rational agency on the world. This 1992 volume is
the only systematic and comprehensive account of the full range of
Kant's writings available, and the first major overview of his work to
be published in more than a dozen years. An internationally recognised
team of Kant scholars explore Kant's conceptual revolution in
epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of science, moral and political
philosophy, aesthetics, and the philosophy of religion.
