Paul Guyer Bücher

This book tells the story of idealism in modern philosophy, from the seventeenth century to the turn of the twenty-first. Guyer and Horstmann discuss many philosophers who have played a role in the development of idealism, including Descartes, Hobbes, Spinoza, Leibniz, Locke, Berkeley, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, and Wittgenstein.

Kant is the most significant Enlightenment philosopher. With an overview of Kant's life and times, this title introduces Kant's metaphysics and epistemology, explaining his arguments about the nature of space, time and experience in his most influential but difficult work, 'The Critique of Pure Reason'.
