Zusatztext for readers with an interest in either Kant or Strawson interpretation, or in the issues in analytic philosophy debated here, it is an excellent source of new and varied research. Klappentext Kant is generally regarded as the greatest modern philosopher. But that analytic philosophers treat him as a central voice in contemporary debates is largely due to Sir Peter Strawson, the most eminent philosopher living in Britain today. In this collection, leading Kant scholars and analytic philosophers, including Strawson himself, for the first time assess his relation to Kant. The essays raise questions about how philosophy should deal with its past, what kind of insights it can achieve, and whether we can have knowledge of an objective reality. Zusammenfassung Sir Peter Strawson is not just among the greatest living philosophers, but is also one of the leading proponents of analytic Kantianism. This text examines Strawson's relation to Kant, combining Strawson's own account of that relation with papers by eminent pupils, admirers and critics.
