Now, this brilliant collection compiles his writings for modern listeners, a testament to the lasting influence of his ideas and inspirations.

Considerada una de las obras más influyentes de toda la historia de la filosofía, Crítica de la razón pura intentó responder una pregunta que había dividido a los pensadores durante siglos: ¿qué podemos conocer realmente y cuáles son los límites del conocimiento humano? Kant resume esta inquietud en una pregunta: ¿qué puedo saber? Marcando un antes y un después en la filosofía moderna, Kant desplaza el centro de la discusión: ya no se trata solo de demostrar racionalmente a Dios, el alma o la estructura última del universo, sino de preguntar si tales realidades pueden ser ...

Published in 1797, the Critique of Pure Reason is considered to be one of the foremost philosophical works ever written. In the Critique of Pure Reason, Immanuel Kant explores the foundation of human knowledge and its limits, as well as man's ability to engage in metaphysics.

This collection spans the full arc of philosophy from all the greatest thinkers, covering ethics, reason, meaning, faith, and the question of how to live well. Older works have been carefully updated for modern listeners, while preserving their original clarity.

Immanuel Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason can lay claim to being the most important single work of modern philosophy, a work whose methodology, if not necessarily always its conclusions, has had a profound influence on almost all subsequent philosophical discourse. In this work Kant addresses, in a groundbreaking elucidation of the nature of reason, the age-old question of philosophy: “How do we know what we know?” and the limits of what it is that we can know with certainty.

Finally Understand the Philosopher Who Changed Everything Immanuel Kant rebuilt philosophy from the ground up. He redefined what we can know, what we ought to do, and what we may hope. He grounded morality in human dignity. He showed how freedom and natural law can coexist. He articulated the principles that still underlie human rights, democratic governance, and international law. But Kant is notoriously difficult. His Critique of Pure Reason has defeated countless readers. His ethical writings demand precision most summaries don't provide. And his complete system—spanning epistemology, ...

Kant's Prolegomena, although a small book, is without doubt the most important of his writings, writes the translator, Paul Carus. Prolegomena means, literally, prefatory or introductory remarks, and it furnishes us with a key to his main work, The Critique of Pure Reason; in fact, it is an extract containing all the salient ideas of Kant's system. It approaches the subject in the simplest and most direct way and is therefore best adapted as an introduction into his philosophy. 

Critique of Judgement was published in 1790 and is divided into two parts, the Critique of Aesthetic Judgement and the Critique of Teleological Judgement. Our ‘judgements of taste’, as Kant describes our aesthetic judgements, have both a personal and a universal function: personal, because we have a subjective aesthetic response to the ‘agreeable’, the ‘beautiful’, the ‘sublime’ and the ‘good’; but also there is a ‘universal’ aspect because our aesthetic response has a ’disinterested’ element. This brings under Kant’s spotlight, for example, the concept of beauty and the perception of beauty. 

This book is fourth in a series of books devoted to helping students understand some of the great works in ethics, social and political philosophy. It has been said that Kant's Grounding for the Metaphysics of Morals "is the single most important work in modern moral philosophy" (Henry Allison). It is also one of the most difficult books to comprehend, especially for beginning philosophy students. Understanding Immanuel Kant makes Kant accessible to students while at the same time showing why his writings have had such a powerful influence on philosophical ethics. Professor Houlgate's book ...

Immanuel Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason is a core text of modern philosophy. Presenting an examination of the nature of human reason, its central argument is that the way in which man perceives his environment is a direct consequence of the mind’s ability to act on this environment and convert it into something meaningful. The work brings together two opposing schools of philosophy—rationalism and empiricism—and proposes a third way, which came to be known as transcendental idealism. The work proved to be hugely influential, not least on Marx, Heidegger and Nietzsche.

Immanuel Kant's Fundamental Principles of the Metaphysics of Morals, first published in 1785, lays out Kant's essential philosophy and defines the concepts and arguments that would shape his later work. Central to Kant's doctrine is the categorical imperative, which he defines as a mandate that human actions should always conform to a universal, unchanging standard of rational morality.

Designed for students, lifelong learners, and anyone curious about the foundations of modern philosophy, this accessible and engaging guide explores Kant’s revolutionary ideas on knowledge, morality, freedom, and reason. Dive into Kant’s "Copernican Revolution" in thought, unpack the difference between a priori and a posteriori knowledge, and grasp the powerful implications of the categorical imperative.

Publicado por primera vez en 1781 y revisado en 1787, Crítica de la Razón Pura es considerada la obra maestra de Kant y una de las piezas centrales de la filosofía moderna. Kant busca responder a preguntas fundamentales sobre la naturaleza del conocimiento humano, la relación entre la experiencia y la realidad, y los límites de la razón. La Crítica de la Razón Pura marcó un punto de inflexión en la filosofía al proponer que ni el empirismo ni el racionalismo por sí solos podían explicar completamente el conocimiento humano.

The Critique of Pure Reason, published in 1781, by German philosopher Immanuel Kant, cornerstone of modern philosophy, is one of the most important works on metaphysics ever published and is often seen as the culmination of centuries of early-modern philosophical thought. The Critique of Pure Reason, also known as The First Critique, incorporates in-depth discussions on empirical reason, "pure" reason, human knowledge as a whole, space and time, cause and effect, and much, much more.

This edition offers a fresh, clear rendering that preserves Kant's philosophical precision while making his revolutionary ideas genuinely comprehensible. "Have the courage to use your own understanding!"

The Critique of Pure Reason, originally published in 1781 with a revised edition in 1787, stands as one of the most pivotal and transformative philosophical works of the modern era. In this text, Kant endeavors to reconcile the divide between rationalism—where knowledge is derived from reason independent of sensory experience—and empiricism, which posits that our understanding is rooted in sensory input. Specifically, he confronts the radical empiricism of David Hume, who argued that our beliefs are merely products of habitual responses to sensory experiences. Employing scientific methods,...

A través de un profundo análisis, Kant investiga cómo percibimos y comprendemos el mundo, cuestionando las bases del conocimiento racional.
