The Philosophical Heritage of Immanuel Kant (April 22, 1724-Feb. 12, 1804)

Synopsis It would not be an exaggeration in saying that Kant is the most influential founder of European modernity and the Enlightenment rationality. Kant and Kantianism have made great stir; not only in the fields of epistemology, metaphysics, morality and aesthetics, but also in such areas as Phenomenology, Philosophy of Science, Dialectics, analytic Philosophy and so on. Not only that Kant has influenced his philosophical successors like Fichte, Schelling, Hegel, Schopenhauer, Marx, Engels and Lenin; but his philosophy has made tremendous impact on the poststructuralist Foucault, deconstructionist Derrida, Critical Theorists like Adorno, Horkheimer, Marcuse and Habermas There are several reactions to Kantianism; such as the dialectic of Hegel, irrationalism of Schopenhauer, the psychological reactions of Herbert and Beneke, the theological reactions of Weisse and Schleiermacher and the Materialist reactions of David Strauss, Feuerbach, Marx,Engels and Lenin. Even the present-day Kant scholars associate themselves to either of these reactions. Likewise, J.N. Findlay, Charles Taylor, M.J. Inwood, R.B. Pippin react to Kant from Hegelian point of view and Alexandre Kojeve, Adorno, Herbert Marcuse, Habermas and George Lukacs have strongly reacted to Kant from the Marxist point of view. The presents volume consists of articles from the most distinguished academicians of India. The contributors have tried to make Kant relevant in the changed intellectual climate in India and the world so that the philosophical heritage of Kant can be preserved and sustained.
