Critique of Pure Reason
Description
Book Introduction
The essence of Kant's philosophy! The dynamism of thought!
A human revolution that overturns old ideas!
Humans are at the center of nature, a Copernican revolution!
The essence of Kant's great philosophy that deals with the values of world civilization!
There is a strong tendency to be interested in 'transcendental analysis' today,
The reader should consider that Kant's own thought dynamism is rather breathing in 'transcendental dialectic'.
Read this immortal masterpiece.
The greatest work of moral philosophy!
The Critique of Pure Reason is the first work of Kant's critical philosophy and was published in 1781.
In this book, Kant questions the authority and limits of human reason and the possibility of establishing metaphysics as an academic discipline.
It also overturned the traditional dogmatic metaphysics and completed a human-centered world.
『Critique of Pure Reason』, along with his 『Critique of Practical Reason』, is considered a masterpiece of the highest authority in moral philosophy.
Kant raises the following three questions as problems of true philosophy, particularly through the Critique of Pure Reason.
First, 'What can I know?', second, 'What should I do?', and third, 'What should I hope for?'
The answer to these three questions (tasks) is this book, Kant's Critique of Pure Reason.

Publisher's Review
The core of Kant's philosophy is the pursuit of the true value of human existence!
In his Critique of Pure Reason, Kant argues that the true meaning of philosophy, that is, 'to philosophize', means the search for truth, and that in order to search for truth, one must abandon all dogmatic prejudices and skeptical despair and follow a critical way of thinking.
After reading Rousseau's "Emile," Kant realized that all humans deserve respect and that those who do not respect their personality are inferior and shameful beings.
Kant's philosophy is both critical philosophy and human philosophy.
He depicted the human figure in the vast universe.
There, humans are nothing more than insignificant animal creatures given a fleeting life.
But even among these, Kant saw human dignity in the voice of morality beckoning from within.
Because we repeat failures and mistakes, we come to see the true and proper form of humanity.
Criticizing and innovating the current situation and creating a truly humane society is the true value of human existence that Kant proclaimed as the "moral law within us."
The image of human beings, free from the laws of the external world of sense and free to define themselves by moral laws, will shine with unchanging nobility throughout the long course of history.
Humans are at the center of nature! A Copernican revolution!
Kant believed that something does not exist independently of humans, in nature outside of humans, but rather, that humans constitute the empirical object that corresponds to it.
Universal and necessary truths, that is, scientific a priori synthetic judgments, are not established by our correctly replicating external objects, but, on the contrary, are judgments about what we ourselves have spontaneously created through a priori forms.
Since such a composition is voluntary and depends on one's own abilities, it can be said to be subjective.
But if, however shabby, as long as there is an experience or an object, that formal synthesis must always be in operation, then it is also objective.
These natural objects and experiences become possible through human spontaneity, and the various laws that arise from them can be grasped, and a priori synthetic judgments are made.
Copernicus overturned the geocentric theory and advocated the heliocentric theory.
Kant overturned the existing doctrine that external objects exist independently, and argued that humans themselves create such objects by operating a priori forms.
This way of thinking is, as Kant himself said, comparable to a 'Copernican revolution' in the correct understanding of things.
Philosophy toward humanity! Philosophy for humanity!
When people think of Kant, they usually think of a detached man whose daily life was as regular as clockwork.
And it will bring to mind a philosopher who remained single throughout his life, pursuing profound critical philosophy, a difficult subject to approach.
But we must not ignore another aspect of Kant.
Kant's philosophy is a philosophy directed towards humanity.
If you don't know people, you can't teach them.
Kant recommends, above all, interacting with people and traveling a lot, and reading travelogues, world history, biographies, plays, and novels as a way to acquire and expand knowledge about humans and the world.
Kant was constantly conducting experiments to understand so-called human beings through this method.
Kant had a keen insight into human psychology, both inside and out.
Kant lived by his own theories and teachings.
Soon, he wanted to live with the people of the world according to philosophical and moral theories, strictly suppressing himself by reason.
It is based on human principles.
Kant was extremely conscientious, diligent, pious, and strict in his conduct.
But at the same time, he was very cheerful, humorous, and witty, and he was kind and generous to everyone.
This aspect of Kant's personality is deeply embedded in his philosophy.
This philosophy of Kant develops further from the Critique of Pure Reason to the Critique of Practical Reason.
His Critique of Practical Reason is famous as a masterpiece on human ethics and behavior.
In this book, Kant proves that the fundamental system required by human reason cannot be completed through theory alone and must be preceded by practice.
