The selections in this anthology have been chosen to illustrate the main branches of Kant's philosophy: his theory of knowledge expounded in Critique of Pure Reason, his ethics represented by Foundations of the Metaphysics of Morals, his aesthetics in Critique of Judgement, and his theory of enlightenment in On History. (For other texts on German Philosophy see vols. 5, 23, 24, 27, 40, 48, and 78.)
