This is a most complete English edition of Kant's correspondence.
The letters are concerned with philosophical and scientific topics
but many also treat personal, historical and cultural matters. On
one level the letters chart Kant's philosophical development. On
another level they expose quirks and foibles, and reveal a good
deal about Kant's friendships and philosophical battles with some
of the prominent thinkers of the time: Herder, Hamann, Mendelssohn
and Fichte. What emerges from these pages is a vivid picture of the
intellectual, religious and political currents of the late
eighteenth-century Prussia, in which there is much to be learnt
about topics such as censorship, and the changing status of Jews
and women in Europe. Amongst the special features of this volume
are: a substantial introduction, detailed explanatory notes, a
glossary, and biographical sketches of correspondents and people
referred to in the letters.
