Immanuel Kant was an eighteenth-century German philosopher (1724-1804). He lived his whole life in the city of Königsberg in the Kingdom of Prussia. He was the last influential philosopher in modern European culture. And one of the most important philosophers who wrote on classical epistemology. Immanuel Kant was the last of the Enlightenment philosophers, which began with British thinkers John Locke, George Berkeley, and David Hume.
Immanuel Kant put forward a new perspective in philosophy that influenced and continues to influence European philosophy until now, meaning that his influence extended from the eighteenth century until the twenty-first century. He published important and fundamental works on epistemology and other works on religion and on law and history.
The most famous of his works is his book Critique of Abstract Reason, which he published in 1781 when he was about sixty years old. In this book, Kant explores the limitations and structure of the human mind itself. In this book he attacks traditional metaphysics and classical epistemology. And the most beautiful and creative contributions were in this area in particular. Then he published other major works in his old age, including his book Critique of Practical Reason, in which he examined the aspect of morality and the human conscience, and his book, Critique of Judgment, in which he investigated the philosophy of beauty and teleology.
