Kant's Physical Geography

Abstract

AbstractThis review of an edited collection, Reading Kant's Geography, discusses a series of critical essays on Kant's physical geography, a topic to which he devoted many years of intellectual energy. The volume is the first of its kind for it appears in anticipation of the first ever publication into English of Kant's own lectures on physical geography, which lectures he held for over forty years, alternating with lectures on anthropology. This volume together with the publication of the lectures thus constitute an important event in the English language reception of Kant.
