The work proved to be hugely influential, not least on Marx, Heidegger and Nietzsche.

Immanuel Kant is one of the most important figures of German philosophy. He is said to have affected a Copernican revolution in philosophy, akin to Copernicus' reversal of the age-old belief that the sun revolved around the earth, through his ground-breaking work on the structure of experience. He argued that human experience couldn't be not affected by the features of our minds; the consequence is that we can only experience a phenomenal world, as conveyed by our senses, and never the reality itself, which nobody has ever seen. He published important treatises on ethics, religion, law, aesthetics, and history.

Immanuel Kant is een van de belangrijkste figuren van de Duitse filosofie. Hij zei te hebben beïnvloed een Copernicaanse revolutie in de filosofie, verwant aan Copernicus' omkering van de eeuwenoude overtuiging dat de zon draaide rond de aarde, door zijn baanbrekende werk aan de structuur van de ervaring. Hij betoogde dat de menselijke ervaring niet kon worden beïnvloed door de kenmerken van onze geest; Het gevolg is dat we slechts een fenomenale wereld kunnen ervaren, zoals overgebracht door onze zintuigen, en nooit de werkelijkheid zelf, die niemand ooit heeft gezien.

The Critique of Practical Reason was published in 1788, seven years after Immanuel Kant's major work, Critique of Pure Reason. In it, Kant sets out his moral philosophy - and it proved a seminal text in the history of the subject. He argues that the summum bonum (the highest good) of life is that rather than just pursuing happiness, people should inhabit a moral dimension that enables them to deserve the happiness that God can give. Though much shorter than Critique of Pure Reason, this is the sourcebook for Kant’s ethical doctrines.

Immanuel Kant est une figure incontournable de la philosophie allemande. On lui doit une compréhension absolument nouvelle de la façon dont l'esprit façonne l'expérience. Kant constate qu'on ne peut jamais percevoir que des phénomènes, c'est-à-dire des perceptions déterminées par nos sens et nos structures mentales, et jamais la chose objective, l'événement en soi ; à partir de là, il s'attache à décrire les structures de l'esprit à l'origine de nos perceptions.

Publicado por primera vez en 1781 y revisado en 1787, Crítica de la Razón Pura es considerada la obra maestra de Kant y una de las piezas centrales de la filosofía moderna.
