HE past does not change; it cannot, for what has happened T cannot
be undone. Yet how are we to understand what has happened? Our
perspective on it lies in the present, and is subject to continual
change. These changes, made in the light of our new knowledge and
new experience, call for fresh evaluations and constant
reconsideration. It is now one hundred fifty years since the death
of Immanuel Kant, and this, the third volume of Tulane Studies in
Philosophy is dedicated to the commemoration of the event. The
diversity of the contributions to the volume serve as one
indication of Kant's persistent importance in philoso phy. His work
marks one of the most enormous turns in the whole history of human
thought, and there is still much to be done in estimating its
achievement. His writings have not been easy to assimilate. The
exposition is difficult and labored; it is replete with
ambiguities, and even with what often appear to be contradictions.
Such writings allow for great latitude in interpretation. Yet who
would dare .to omit Kant from the account? The force of a man's
work is measured by his influence on other thinkers; and here, Kant
has few superiors. Of no man whose impact upon the history of ideas
has been as great as that of Kant can it be said with finality:
this 5 6 TULANE STUDIES IN PHILOSOPHY is his philosophy."
