Description
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...

"Perpetual Peace" is a philosophical work written by the German philosopher Immanuel Kant in 1795. In this work, Kant argues that peace can only be achieved through a world order based on international law, democratic governance, and the promotion of free trade.
Kant believed that war was a result of a flawed system of international relations, where states pursued their own self-interests without regard for the interests of other nations. He argued...

Immanuel Kant es una de las figuras más importantes de la filosofía alemana. Se dice que ha afectado una revolución copernicana en la filosofía, similar a la inversión de Copérnico de la antigua creencia de que el sol giraba alrededor de la tierra, a través de su innovador trabajo sobre la estructura de la experiencia. Sostenía que la experiencia humana no podía no ser afectada por los rasgos de nuestra mente; la consecuencia es que sólo...

Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) is still one of the most important philosophers. One of his best-known writings, in addition to the great reviews, is his late work "To Eternal Peace. A Philosophical Design" (1795).

Description
Why this critique is called simply Critique of Practical Reason and not Critique of Pure Practical Reason, though the parallelism between it and the critique of speculative reason seems to demand the latter title, will be sufficiently shown in the treatise itself. Its task is merely to show that there is a pure practical reason, and, in order to do this, it critically examines reason's entire practical faculty. If it succeeds in this task, there is...

Description
"In the 'Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals' (1785), Immanuel Kant makes clear his two central intentions : first, to uncover the principle that underpins morality, and secondly to defend its applicability to human beings. The result is one of the most significant texts in the history of ethics, and a masterpiece of Enlightenment thinking. Kant argues that moral law tells us to act only in ways that others could also act, thereby treating them...
