This book presents a critical reconsideration of the Kantian
cognitive and practical subject. Special attention is devoted to
highlight the complex relation between subjectivity as it is
presented in the three critiques and the way in which it is
construed in other writings, in particular the Anthropology. While
for Kant our cognitive apparatus and the structure of our will are
common to all humans, the anthropological subject reveals degrees
of variation, depending on a myriad of external circumstances that
pose a challenge to the unity of Kant’s account and await
theoretical solutions. The essays collected in the volume delve
into how the different shapes of human nature are not unrelated.
They explore how and why different “Kantian subjects” are
closely connected and at their core, if not entirely unified. The
notions of personality, humanity, and citizenship will serve as
leading threads for the reconstruction of this possible underlying
unity. An engaging read that promises to deepen our understanding
of human nature, the volume will be of great interest to scholars
and researchers of philosophy, politics, psychology, social
anthropology, ethics, and epistemology.
