About this listen

The Critique of Pure Reason, published in 1781, by German philosopher Immanuel Kant, cornerstone of modern philosophy, is one of the most important works on metaphysics ever published and is often seen as the culmination of centuries of early-modern philosophical thought. The Critique of Pure Reason, also known as The First Critique, incorporates in-depth discussions on empirical reason, "pure" reason, human knowledge as a whole, space and time, cause and effect, and much, much more.

Incomprehensible even if the translation were good, which it's not. Whilst Kant forms the basis of any study of philosophy, it's because of his convoluted reasoning, which ties himself up in knots, that we have moved on. Only his expression "a priori" survives him as meaningful.
