Om denne e-bog
Immanuel
Kant is undoubtedly one of the most important thinkers in the history of
philosophy. He is also notoriously difficult for beginners to understand. Starting with Kant offers a genuinely
accessible introduction to the metaphysics, theory of knowledge, and moral
philosophy of this hugely influential figure. It assumes no prior acquaintance
with his ideas.
Thematically
structured, the book opens with a completely non-technical overview of the
development of Kant's mature thought, resulting in a wide-ranging understanding
of his famous and ground breaking 'Copernican revolution in metaphysics'. The
book evaluates the basic framework of his metaphysical outlook, and sets out
its implications for his theory of knowledge and moral philosophy. Kant's
position in these fields is related to other philosophers of his period so that
a number of his seminal ideas can be clearly understood through an appreciation
of their opposing views. This is the ideal introduction for anyone coming to
the work of his hugely important thinker for the first time.
