Immanuel Kant

Immanuel Kant was an influential 18th-century Prussian philosopher known for his critical approach to metaphysics and epistemology.

His major works include The Critique of Pure Reason, The Critique of Practical Reason, and The Critique of Judgment.

Kant sought to reconcile empiricism and rationalism, arguing that knowledge comes from both experience and reason.

He proposed that the mind shapes our perception of reality, limiting what we can know about the world.

Kant's ideas significantly impacted German Idealism and continue to influence both Analytic and Continental philosophy.

His work on ethics, aesthetics, and the nature of knowledge remains central to philosophical discourse.
