Overview

Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) is a towering figure of modern Western philosophy, someone whose work continues to exert an influence across all areas of the discipline. His work is characterized by both breadth and unity: he writes powerfully about mind, epistemology, metaphysics, logic, mathematics, natural science, ethics, politics, aesthetics, education, and more. And across those areas, he is concerned to work out and defend a view of human beings and their place in nature according to which our own reason enables us to discover and uphold the laws of nature and freedom-that is, to think for ourselves. The Oxford Handbook of Kant provides an up-to-date account of recent scholarship on Kant's philosophy, taking in all areas of his writings. It will be essential reading for students and scholars of Kant's philosophy. The individual chapters to this Handbook each provide a scholarly analysis and assessment of some of aspect of Kant's philosophy and the collection ranges across all the areas to which Kant contributed. It collectively presents a picture of where the study of Kant's philosophy finds itself, at this point in the twenty-first century, and is essential reading for students and scholars of Kant's philosophy who want to think for themselves about the topics about which he wrote with such insight.
