Como tem sido o foco das leituras atuais, a que tenho me dedicado, aqui acrescento uma obra a que em breve me debruçarei.
Como segue abaixo; é sabido que "Kant era um epistemólogo, um filósofo da mente, um metafísico da experiência, um especialista em ética e um filósofo da religião. Mas tudo isso foi sustentado por sua fé religiosa", pontos que sempre me interessaram e compõem minhas leituras básicas. Portanto, é nessa linha que seguirei.
"Primeiro, situa Kant na tradição de reflexão sobre a fraqueza humana, de Lutero a Hume; em seguida [...], todo o trabalho pré-crítico de Kant, incluindo seus fragmentos póstumos. Especial atenção é dada ao The Only Possible Ground (1763), um dos mais difíceis, interessantes e subestimados trabalhos de Kant. O presente livro se baseia em uma antiga abordagem de Kant, mas também se engaja com estudos acadêmicos anglófonos e continentais recentes, e emprega ferramentas analíticas modernas para dar sentido a Kant. O resultado é uma interpretação inovadora e instigante da metafísica de Kant, tendo como pano de fundo aspectos religiosos esquecidos da filosofia européia. ”

“KANT,
GOD AND METAPHISICS
Kant is widely acknowledged as the
greatest philosopher of modern times. He undertook his famous critical turn to
save human freedom and morality from the challenge of determinism and
materialism. Intertwined with his metaphysical interests, however, he also had
theological commitments, which have received insufficient attention. He
believed that man is a fallen creatureand in need of ‘redemption’. He intended
to provide a fortress protecting religious faith from the failure of
rationalist metaphysics, from the atheistic strands of the Enlightenment, from
the new mathematical science of nature, and from the dilemmas of Christian
theology itself. Kant was an epistemologist, a philosopher of mind, a
metaphysician of experience, an ethicist and a philosopher of religion. But all
this was sustained by his religious faith.
This book aims to recover the focal
point and inner contradictions of his thought, the ‘secret thorn’ of his
metaphysics (as Heidegger once put it). It first locates Kant in the tradition
of reflection on the human weakness from Luther to Hume, and then engages in a
critical, but charitable, manner with Kant’s entire pre-critical work,
including his posthumous fragments. Special attention is given to The Only
Possible Ground(1763), one of the most difficult, interesting and
underestimated of Kant’s works. The present book takes its cue from an older
approach to Kant, but also engages with recent Anglophone and continental
scholarship, and deploys modern analytical tools to make sense of Kant. What
emerges is an innovative and thought-provoking interpretation of Kant’s
metaphysics, set against the background of forgotten religious aspects of
European philosophy.”
