Features: Kant's "Three Critiques" are profound and difficult to understand. The editors of this book strive to reflect the spiritual principles, argumentation methods, and essence of Kant's landmark "critical philosophy" through carefully selected, compared, and independently chosen excerpts in a relatively concise format. Unlike many previously published Chinese translations of Kant's works, which were translated from English, all the selections in this book are directly translated from the German original to better convey the original form of Kant's philosophy. An introduction written by the editors is included at the beginning of the book to assist readers, and brief editor's prefaces are provided before each section. Through the editors' meticulous prefaces and selections, readers are expected to better appreciate how this legendary K?nigsberg philosopher achieved the "Copernican revolution" in the field of philosophy. A German philosopher who spent his entire life in the East Prussian city of K?nigsberg. His main work, "Critique of Pure Reason," comprehensively and synthetically addressed the empiricism problem arising from Hume's philosophy, becoming a classic in philosophical works for over 200 years to this day. The two works, "Foundations of Metaphysics of Morals" and "Critique of Practical Reason,",“”. His third and final critique philosophy work, "Critique of Judgment," masterfully argued the universality of aesthetic judgment and the teleological problem of beauty. Kant is an important representative of German classical philosophy, and his critical philosophy has had a profound impact on later philosophy.
