  Immanuel Kant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kant enrolled in the University of Königsberg in 1740, at the age of 16.
Kant is often cited as the most important source of this strand of ethical theory; in particular, of the theory of conduct, also known as the theory of obligation.
Kant's most powerful and revolutionary effect on philosophy, which changed forever its meaning, modes of thinking, and language(s), was not "positive" in the sense of producing specific assertions about the world that have become accepted truths, as in the positive sciences.

Kant, Immanuel, 1724-1804, German philosopher, one of the greatest figures in the history of metaphysics.
According to Kant, his reading of David Hume woke him from his dogmatic slumber and led him to become the "critical philosopher," synthesizing the rationalism of Leibniz and the skepticism of Hume.
Kant's Ethics centers in his categorical imperative, or absolute moral law, "Act as if the maxim from which you act were to become through your will a universal law." His Critique of Judgment (1790) considered the concepts of beauty and purposiveness as a bridge between the sensible and the intelligible worlds.

 Kant, Immanuel. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
Kant was educated in his native city, tutored in several families, and after 1755 lectured at the Univ. of Königsberg in philosophy and various sciences.
Kant’s ethics centers in his categorical imperative (or moral law)—“Act as if the maxim from which you act were to become through your will a universal law.” This law has its source in the autonomy of a rational being, and it is the formula for an absolutely good will.
Kant influenced English thought through the philosophy of Sir William Hamilton and T. Green, and some Kantian ideas are found in the pragmatism of William James and John Dewey.

He rightly felt that the reception of Kant's doctrines was impeded by their phraseology.
He resolved to bring himself before Kant's notice by submitting to him a workin which the principles of the Kantian philosophy should be applied.
Indirectly, indeed, Kant had indicated a very definite opinion on theology: from the Critique of Pure Reason it was clear that for him speculative theology must be purely negative, while the Critique of Practical Reason as clearly indicated the view that the moral law is the absolute content or substance of any religion.

Hermann Cohen Such ambiguities between an author's intentions and the Wirkungsgeschichte of his or her books are involved when we deal with Hermann Cohen and the history of modern Jewish philosophy.
Hermann Cohen, operating as he did in a largely unsympathetic environment, went a long way towards explaining to his contemporaries the moral implications of the communal rituals and traditions of the Jewish tradition.

 SUNY Press :: Critical Philosophy of Hermann Cohen, The   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
This is a translation from the Italian of a study of the work of Hermann Cohen, a figure generally recognized as the most significant Jewish thinker of the past 100 years.
Hermann Cohen's philosophy stood out in favor of the value of critical reason, on which scientific idealism, in the form of a revival of authentic rational idealism, is founded.
Cohen was, without doubt, one of the principal adherents of the "return to Kant" as a fundamental point of reference of "Critical Idealism." He based this revival on a long, historical, philosophical tradition, represented by Plato, Descartes, Leibniz, and others, apart from Kant himself.

 Hermann von Helmholtz + Théophile Gautier
The son of a classics teacher of small means, Hermann was persuaded to set aside his love of natural science in favor of medicine, because the Prussian government would pay for a medical education — as long as he committed to 10 years as a physician in the army.
But his intellect was insatiable, so he read philosophy works at the University of Berlin, particularly the works of Immanuel Kant, and taught himself mathematics.
Hermann von Helmholtz died in Charlottenburg on 8 September 1894.

 Adventures in Philosophy: A Brief History of Jewish Philosophy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
It was neither Kant's intention to end all philosophical endeavors, nor to confine the spirit of future thought to the terms of his literary language; but he did claim to have written the most methodical introduction (the prolegomena) of both past and future metaphysics.
It is similar to that of poetry toward myth; the myth creates its images in a naive fashion as a means of conceiving things; poetry utilizes such images as symbols and metaphors, and the poet reflects upon the material of the myths.
In fact the theoretical aspects of Kant's philosophy are nothing but proof of their physical examples; the demonstration of their epistemological value within the bounds of the science of nature based upon mathematics.

 Hermann Lotze
Rudolph Hermann Lotze (1817-1881) mediated the transition from the exuberance of German idealism, in the first half of the nineteenth century, to the sober, scholarly and scientific ethos that came to prevail in the second half.
But Lotze affirmed this premises for reason quite different from Kant, for he believed that Kant had rested his claim of “the ideality of space on the argument that the spatial form of the intuition must be innate” (Hatfield, 1990, p.
Further, Kant had insisted that persons have “worth” or “value” and that this serves as a critical characteristic separating them from mere things (which may be said to have only a “price”).

 Friedrich Albert Lange
While keeping much of the language of Kant, Hermann von Helmholtz, and others, managed arguably to fundamentally change the questions being asked in Kant's name and the methods that were allowed in finding answers to these questions.
Kant thus argues that we can conclude for practical purposes that the we are free.
Kant's claim that his moral law is a fixed point is somehow “subjective” and shows Kant as being a child of his times.

 SUNY Press :: Norms of Answerability, The   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
Nielsen situates a social theory between Bakhtin's norms of answerability and Jürgen Habermas's sociology, ethics, and discourse theory of democracy in a way that emphasizes the creative dimension in social action without reducing explanation to the emotional and volitional impulse of the individual or collective actor.
Some of the classical sources that support this mediated position are traced to Alexander Vvedenskij's and Georg Simmel's critiques of Kant's ethics, Hermann Cohen's philosophy of fellowship, and Max Weber's and George Herbert Mead's theories of action.
In the shift from Bakhtin's theory of interpersonal relations to a dialogic theory of societal events that defends the bold claim that law and politics should not be completely separated from the specificity of ethical and cultural communities, a study of citizenship and national identity is developed.

 hegel.net - Hegel FAQ (most frequent asked questions)
According to the Hegel-legend one would expect Hegel to recommend this "triplicity." But, after saying that it was derived from Kant, he calls it a "lifeless schema," "mere shadow" and concludes: "The trick of wisdom of that sort is as quickly acquired as it is easy to practice.
In the student notes, edited and published as History of Philosophy, Hegel mentions in the Kant chapter, the "spiritless scheme of the triplicity of thesis, antithesis, and synthesis" (geistloses Schema) by which the rhythm and movement of philosophic knowledge is artificially pre-scribed (vorgezeichnet).
Rousseau, Lessing, Kant, Hermann Reimarus, Johann Herder and Heinrich Paulus had already constructed a literature that attempted to explain all the miracles of the Bible in rational terms.

 Judaism: Revisionism and the Rav: The Struggle for the Soul of Modern Orthodoxy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
Soloveitchik, however, proceeds to defuse the significance of such references by claiming that they were just "for the purpose of expounding a text in Chovos Halevovos, Kuzari and Rambam." But a reading of Halakhic Man or Halakhic Mind makes it abundantly clear that such a claim is untenable.
For example, in Halakhic Man the Rav makes extensive use of such philosophers as Kant and Hermann Cohen, but doesn't even refer to any of t he medieval Jewish philosophers, with the exception of the Rambam (and a passing glance at ibn Gabirol).
On the other hand, in U-Vikashtem mi-Sham, where the central problem is the relationship of the rational religious consciousness and the revealed religious consciousness, the Rav, as one would expect, refers at length to the medieval Jewish philosophical treatments of this issue.

 The Sources and Influence of the Kant-Friesian School
The "Scottish Philosophy" of Hume and Smith is indicated, both for the inspiration provided for Kant, who was awakened from his "dogmatic slumber" by Hume, but also for the enduring foundation of sound economics provided by Smith.
Starting with Kant and including Schopenhauer, the whole structure might better be called the Kant-Friesian rather than the merely Friesian School.
Identifying Schopenhauer and Fries as the proper successors to Kant is due to the judgment that Schopenhauer represents the best critique of Kant's metaphysics as Fries represents the best critique of his epistemology.

Established authors of former East Germany such as Christa Wolf, Hermann Kant or Christoph Hein found it difficult to find an ear because of their political and often very committed writings on the change.
With the generation of young authors who have been published since 1990 it is still false to see them as part of the literature of reunification.
