“Kant on Persons and Agency”
"Today we consider ourselves to be free and equal persons, capable of
acting rationally and autonomously in both practical (moral) and theoretical
(scientific) contexts. The essays in this volume show how this conception was
first articulated in a fully systematic fashion by Immanuel Kant in the
eighteenth century. Twelve leading scholars shed new light on Kant's
philosophy, with each devoting particular attention to at least one of three
aspects of this conception: autonomy, freedom, and personhood. Some focus on clarifying
the philosophical content of Kant's position, while others consider how his
views on these issues cohere with his other distinctive doctrines, and yet
others focus on the historical impact that these doctrines had on his immediate
successors and on our present thought. Their essays offer important new
perspectives on some of the most fundamental issues that we continue to
confront in modern society.
Explores Kant's views on autonomy, freedom, and personhood both as
questions in their own right and in the context of his wider system of thought
Essays written by twelve leading international Kant scholars present
fresh and up-to-date insights into his philosophy
Addresses the lasting influence of Kantian thinking in this area and the
continuing importance of the issue of agency for our lives today"
