This remarkably comprehensive Handbook provides a multifaceted yet carefully crafted investigation into the work of Immanuel Kant, one of the greatest philosophers the world has ever seen. With original contributions from leading international scholars in the field, this authoritative volume first sets Kant's work in its biographical and historical context. It then proceeds to explain and evaluate his revolutionary work in metaphysics and epistemology, logic, ethics, aesthetics, philosophy of science, philosophy of religion, political philosophy, philosophy of history, philosophy of education, and anthropology.

 

Key Features:

 

  • Draws attention to the foundations of Kant's varied philosophical insights — transcendental idealism, logic, and the bridge between theoretical and practical reason

  • Considers hitherto neglected topics such as sexuality and the philosophy of education

  • Explores the immense impact of his ground-breakingwork on subsequent intellectual movements

     

    Serving as a touchstone for meaningful discussion about Kant's philosophical and historical importance, this definitive Handbook is essential reading for Kant scholars who want to keep abreast of the field and for advanced students wishing to explore the frontiers of the subject.
