O ovoj e-knjizi

A new translation of Immanuel Kants 1783 Prolegomena to any future Metaphysics that will be able to appear as Science in modern American English with the original German in the back.

This is Volume IV in The Complete Works of Immanuel Kant from LP.

The Prolegomena was published two years after the first edition of the Critique of Pure Reason and summarizes the Critique's essential arguments utilizing phraseology and lines of though not present in the first edition. This was intended by Kant as a simplified and clear presentation of the Critique, and he would later work some of these summaries back into later versions of the Critique. It is a hostile polemic against the initial criticisms from specific authors and broadly against the Empiricism of Deterministic Causality and attempts to charta an Ontotheology based on the internal ordering of the mind and soul. Here he returns to the basic ideas of his Metaphysics and lays the foundation for a Metaphysical science that is as respected as mathematics or physics.

Just like the Critique, the Prolegomena is Epistemological in nature, focusing on questions on the perception and acquisition of knowledge. Kant muses on a range of Cosmological and Noetic questions, such as how are a priori assumptions possible, or how is knowledge from pure reason possible? How is our numinal consciousness structured, and how does it know the world? What is Space, time, and the cosmos, and how does God interact with or is known by the material world and its inhabitants?

O autoru

Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) was a German philosopher whose work established a new foundation for philosophy, particularly in the fields of epistemology and ethics, making him a pivotal figure of the Enlightenment. In his seminal work, Critique of Pure Reason, Kant introduced the concept of "transcendental idealism," arguing that human knowledge is shaped not only by sensory experience but also by the minds inherent structures. This "Copernican revolution" in philosophy shifted the focus to the conditions that make knowledge possible. In Critique of Practical Reason, Kant articulated the "categorical imperative," a moral principle that posits actions as ethical if they can be universalized as a law for all. His emphasis on reason, autonomy, and moral duty has had a lasting impact on ethics, political theory, and modern conceptions of individual freedom and responsibility. Kants ideas continue to influence contemporary philosophy, underpinning debates on rationality, morality, and the nature of human understanding.
