About the Book;-Very few biographies of Kant exist. The Neo-Kantian movement renewed interest in his life. During the last half of the 19th century, John Henry Wilbrandt Stuckenberg provided an eminently readable biography of Kant. Kant is known chiefly as the author of the “Kritik of pure Reason.” In giving an account of his life however, a much more comprehensive view of him must be, taken; he must be considered in the various relations he sustained. As his works culminated in ethics and theology and were intended to establish these on a firm basis his moral and religious views deserve more attention than they generally receive from English writers on his philosophy, especially since they are so intimately connected with his life. A critical discussion of his abstruse philosophy would be out of place in a biography. About the Author : - J. H. W. Stuckenberg was born in 1835 near the old German city of Osnaoruck.
