Features: Kant claimed that there were three questions he had been thinking about throughout his life and had tried to answer: What can I know? What ought I to do? What may I hope? These three questions together form a larger question: What is a human being? Among these, the question "What may I hope?" is addressed by theology. This book collects all of Kant's works on theological issues, with some presented in full and others excerpted to focus on the discussion of religion. Additionally, the book includes several letters where Kant discusses theological issues. The works are arranged in chronological order, allowing readers not only to see the full scope of Kant's religious philosophy but also to trace the development of his thought in this field.
