Description: Kant's Life and Thought by Ernst Cassirer, James Haden Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description "Here is the first Kant-biography in English since Paulsens and Cassirers only full-scale study of Kants philosophy. On a very deep level, all of Cassirers philosophy was based on Kants, and accordingly this book is Cassirers explicit coming to terms with his own historical origins. It sensitively integrates interesting facts about Kants life with an appreciation and critique of his works. Its value is enhanced by Stephen Korners Introduction, which places Cassirers Kant-interpretation in its historical and contemporary context."-Lewis White Beck "The first English translation (well done by James Haden) of a 60-year-old classic intellectual biography. Those readers who know Kant only through the first Critique will find their understanding of that work deepened and illuminated by a long explication of the pre-critical writings, but perhaps the most distinctive contribution is Cassirers argument that the later Critiques, and especially the Critique of Judgment, must be understood not as merely applying the principles of the first to other areas but as subsuming the latter into a larger and more comprehensive framework."-Frederick J.Crown, The Key Reporter "Kants Life and Thought is that rare achievement: a lucid and highly readable account of the life and work of one of the worlds profoundest thinkers. Now for the first time available in an admirable English translation, the book introduces the reader to two of the finest minds in the history of philosophy."-Ashley Montagu Publisher Description "Here is the first Kant-biography in English since Paulsens and Cassirers only full-scale study of Kants philosophy.
