Grundlegung zur Metaphysik der Sitten
Die Grundlegung zur Metaphysik der Sitten (kurz GMS) ist ein Buch von Immanuel Kant, das im Jahr 1785 erschien. Es ist die erste grundlegende Schrift Kants zur Ethik, die er im schon recht hohen Alter von 61 Jahren veröffentlichte. Kants eigentliche Schrift zur Ethik ist die Kritik der praktischen Vernunft. Deren Argumentation ist in der GMS bereits in Grundzügen entwickelt. Das Buch entstand noch unter der Regierung von Friedrich dem Großen. (aus wikipedia.de)
The Science of Right
From the introduction: «The Science of Right has for its object the principles of all the laws which it is possible to promulgate by external legislation. Where there is such a legislation, it becomes, in actual application to it, a system of positive right and law; and he who is versed in the knowledge of this system is called a jurist or jurisconsult (jurisconsultus). A practical jurisconsult (jurisperitus), or a professional lawyer, is one who is skilled in the knowledge of positive external laws, and who can apply them to cases that may occur in experience. Such practical knowledge of positive right, and law, may be regarded as belonging to jurisprudence (jurisprudentia) in the original sense of the term. But the theoretical knowledge of right and law in principle, as distinguished from positive laws and empirical cases, belongs to the pure science of right (jurisscientia). The science of right thus designates the philosophical and systematic knowledge of the principles of natural right. And it is from this science that the immutable principles of all positive legislation must be derived by practical jurists and lawgivers.»
Kant's Prolegomena to any Future Metaphysics
In 1781, Immanuel Kant published his first and most famous work, the «Critique of Pure Reason.» To the German philosopher's dismay, the work was at first poorly received and largely misunderstood by his readers. As a result, two years later Kant produced his «Prolegomena to any Future Metaphysics that will be Able to Present Itself as a Science» to serve as an introduction to the «Critique.» He restated the main ideas of his philosophy in what Schopenhauer, in 1819, declared was «the finest and most comprehensible of Kant's principal works, which is far too little read, for it immensely facilitates the study of his philosophy.» Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) was considered to be one of the most important and influential figures in Western philosophy for his work in the areas of metaphysics, anthropology, theoretical physics, logic, and moral philosophy. Remarkably, Kant never left the town of Königsberg, Germany, where he had been born, received schooling, and served as lecturer at the University for many years.
Critique of Judgement
German philosopher and significant 18th century late Enlightenment thinker Immanuel Kant wrote «Critique of Judgment» in 1790 to solidify his ideas on aesthetics. Divided into two sections, one on aesthetic judgment and the other on teleological judgment, «Critique» proceeds to analyze the human experience of the beautiful and the sublime. From the effect of art and nature to the role of imagination, from objectivity of taste to the limits of representation, Kant investigates a myriad of factors that determine aesthetics. He continues with the connection of aesthetic with morality, disinterestedness, and originality, and consistently bears in mind the interests of reason in his writing. Kant ultimately had a profound impact on the artists, authors, and other philosophers of both the classical and romantic periods, establishing in «Critique» a milestone in critical theory and philosophy.
Logic
Taken from his lecture notes on his introductory course on logic, Kant's philosophies in «Logic» describe his thoughts on the mental process and how it should be applied in life. Kant never set out to write a book on the subject, but his graduate student Gottlob Jaesche gathered his mentor's lecture notes together and added his own observations and explanations to the preexisting text. Included in the philosophy are historical explanations of Kant's beliefs, which detail how he arrived at his conclusions. While the book contains the highly complex extrapolations that Kant is known for, he explains his wordy tendencies by discussing the limitations of language and how difficult it can be to convey thoughts and ideas logically. However, «Logic» contains moments of true clarity and understanding; he posits that by realizing limitations, thinkers can break barriers and comprehend metaphysical ideas. Kant is best known for his three Critiques: «The Critique of Pure Reason,» «The Critique of Practical Reason,» and «The Critique of Judgment.» In large part due to these works, he is known as one of the most famous and popular thinkers of the late Enlightenment period. He is also famous for bridging the gap between the empiricists and rationalists of the time, and although various philosophers have sought to perfect and expand on his theories, his works are staples in the philosophy discourse.
Kant's Principles of Politics and Perpetual Peace
Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) was considered to be one of the most important and influential figures in Western philosophy for his work in the areas of metaphysics, anthropology, theoretical physics, logic, and moral philosophy. Remarkably, Kant never left the town of Königsberg, Germany, where he had been born, received schooling, and served as lecturer at the University. Despite his provinciality, Kant developed original and comprehensive ideas in the field of politics, including his opposition to democracy, the establishment of lasting world peace, and the development of a political community of constitutional republics, all grounded on the principle of Right. This work contains Kant's «Idea of a Universal Cosmopolitical History, Principles of Political Right, The Principle of Progress,» and his most famous essay, «Perpetual Peace,» the formal exposition of Kant's political idea in which he proposed the creation of a International Federation as a means to secure 'the sweet dream of peace'.
Kant's Introduction to Logic and Essay on the Mistaken Subtlety of the Four Figures
Arguably the most influential western philosophical mind since Aristotle, Immanuel Kant was born in 1724 in the Köningsberg, a city in Eastern Prussia where he would live his entire life. A lifelong academic, at sixteen years old Kant entered the University of Köningsberg, where he would go on to tutor for nine years, and then teach. Kant's major concerns involved both religion and science, as he sought reconciliation between the two. His writings on metaphysics and science played a major role in Enlightenment thought. In the field of epistemology, Kant also presented the idea that knowledge lies within the observer, not the object itself. He would never leave Köningsberg, but his ideas were exported all over the world. The actual events of Kant's life pale vastly in magnitude when contrasted against his advances in thought pertaining to epistemology, religion, law, and history. Any student of philosophy will find this volume, which includes Kant's introductory writings on logic and an «Essay on the Mistaken Subtlety of the Four Figures», a worthy addition.
