m with Plato and Aristotle. He made a revolution in philosophy by postulating the necessary relationship between objects of the external world and our perception and, in fact, proving that things and the world itself are inaccessible to our knowledge. Kant raised man to the pinnacle of philosophy, making him the main object, task and “question” of thinking. We can safely say that there was not a single philosopher after him who would not have been influenced by Kant’s thought. This edition includes two works from the famous “critical period”: “Critique of Pure Reason” and “Critique of Judgment”. The first reveals Kant's views on the structure and mechanisms of knowledge, the second - on the problem of beauty, the phenomenon of genius and the nature of beauty. These works are given in abbreviation and with comments designed to clarify in an accessible form the most ornate and complex parts of Kant’s thought.
