Theoretical Philosophy after 1781 cover

Scholarly translations of Kant's polemical writings popularizing and defending the Critique of Pure Reason.

This volume, originally published in 2002, assembles the writings that Kant published to popularize, summarize, amplify and defend the doctrines of his masterpiece, the 1781 Critique of Pure Reason. The Prolegomena is often recommended to students, but the other texts are also important windows overlooking Kant's intellectual development.This volume, originally published in 2002, assembles the historical sequence of writings that Kant published between 1783 and 1796 to popularize, summarize, amplify and defend the doctrines of his masterpiece, the Critique of Pure Reason of 1781. The best known of them, the Prolegomena, is often recommended to beginning students, but the other texts are also vintage Kant and are important sources for a fully rounded picture of Kant's intellectual development. As with other volumes in the series there are copious linguistic notes and a glossary of key terms. The editorial introductions and explanatory notes shed light on the critical reception accorded Kant by the metaphysicians of his day and on Kant's own efforts to derail his opponents.

Review of the hardback: 'The latest volume in the Cambridge edition of the works of Immanuel Kant is an extremely useful collection, which will no doubt find its way onto the shelves of all students of Kant, and many other philosophers.' British Journal for the History of Philosophy
