In this seminal work of moral philosophy, Immanuel Kant establishes the foundation for ethical thought based on reason alone. Written in 1785, Fundamental Principles of the Metaphysic of Morals presents a rigorous argument for the a priori basis of morality, independent of empirical influence.

Positioned between his Critique of Pure Reason and later writings on practical ethics, this text introduces the categorical imperative, a central concept that has shaped Western moral philosophy. Kant examines the nature of duty, autonomy, and the moral law, challenging readers to consider the principles that govern moral action.

With precise reasoning and enduring insight, this foundational treatise remains a vital entry point into Kantian ethics and its profound influence on philosophical discourse.
