Opis

The Critique of Pure Reason, published by Immanuel Kant in 1781, is one of the most complex structures and the most significant of modern philosophy, bringing a revolution at least as great as that of Descartes and his Discourse on Method. The complexity of the first review (the second is the critique of practical reason, and the third is a critique of the faculty of judging), is such that Kant himself published an introductory text, entitled Prolegomena to Any Future Metaphysics. The aim of this book is summed up quite easily, however: metaphysics is a battle that needs to be ordered. Kant proposes to everyone agreed, giving a new status to reason and new contours to the understanding. In summary, the critique of pure reason tries to define credible to the question: How do I know? To this question Kant answers, I can think of the objects of metaphysics (God, I, the world), but not knowing in the sense that I know the laws of physics. Biography: Ne le 22 avril 1724 a Konigsberg, capitale de la Prusse-Orientale, il y est mort le 12 fevrier 1804. Grand penseur de l'Aufklarung, Kant a exerce une influence considerable sur l'idealisme allemand, la philosophie analytique, la phenomenologie, la philosophie postmoderne, et la pensee critique en general. Son uvre, considerable et diverse dans ses interets, mais centree autour des trois Critiques, a savoir la Critique de la raison pure, la Critique de la raison pratique et la Critique de la faculte de juger, fait ainsi l'objet d'appropriations et d'interpretations successives et divergentes Biographie Emmanuel Kant nait en 1724 a Konigsberg en Prusse-Orientale (actuellement Kaliningrad en Russie) dans un milieu modeste: son pere, d'origine ecossaise, est sellier, et sa mere, qu'il qualifie de tres intelligente, est foncierement pietiste. Il est le quatrieme d'une famille de onze enfants. Il frequente durant sept ans le Collegium Fridericianum, dirige par Franz Albert Schultz, pasteur pietiste qui considere la piete de l'ame comme superieure au raisonnement. John Miller Dow Meiklejohn (1836-1902) was a Scottish author, journalist and academic, known as a writer of school books."
