Kant's Philosophy Today

Kant's Philosophy Today © Goethe-Institut

The philosopher Immanuel Kant was born 300 years ago. His ideas remain important reference points for philosophers and theorists in various fields. Why has this interest persisted? Can Kant really help us to think through some of today’s most pressing issues?

This series of moderated discussions will introduce Kant’s philosophy to a general audience and will debate whether and how it remains relevant. In three sessions, panels of experts will discuss Kant’s theory of knowledge, ethics, and aesthetics, connecting the ideas to contemporary problems.

Curated and chaired by Stephen Howard (FRIAS, University of Freiburg)

In cooperation with The Institute of Philosophy, School of Advanced Study, University of London
