Publisher Description: This volume is the first-ever English translation of Kant's last major work, the so-called Opus postumum, a work Kant himself described as his chef d'oeuvre and as the keystone of his entire philosophical system. It occupied him for more than the last decade of his life. Professor F rster's introduction places the text in the context of Kant's earlier writings and provides a comprehensive account of the remarkable history of the manuscript from Kant's death to its eventual publication in the 1930s. Also included are extensive explanatory notes and a helpful glossary. |
