Vernunft und Vorsehung (German, Hardcover)

This study examines the extent to which Kant s ideas about history rely upon elements of Christian eschatology and the problems this creates. After a methodical review of the Lowith- Blumenberg s debate, it goes on to interpret some of Kant s texts that have been rarely considered in depth. The author puts these texts in a broader historical context, and thereby critically questions thinking about history in the modern age and the present."
