Faire une Pause - Timeout - Rehat

The blog contains mainly my reading activity, -- in broader sense, it includes watching film for example -- experience and my personal appreciation on what I read. Basically, I will read books in one of the three (so far) languages: Indonesian, English, French, then I will write the comment on other language than the text I read, at least I'll try to do so.

Kant Bibliography

On reading the Routledge Philosophy Guidebook to Kant and the Critique of Pure Reason, I've made the list of Kant's related books in English. They are not exhaustive list, but they look the most interesting ones. They are not the book that are written by Kant either. I would like to read two or three of them. Here they are in alphabetical order:

  • Allison, Henry E. Kant's Transcendental Idealism: An Interpretation and Defense. Yale University Press; Rev&Expand edition (March 1, 2004). It is the most likely book that I would read together with Guyer.
  • Bennett, Jonathan. Kant's Dialectic. Cambridge University Press; (June 20, 1974). This book seems to criticise Kant, so maybe I would like to read it after I really understand what Kantian is.
  • Dickerson A.B.Kant on Representation and Objectivity. Cambridge University Press; (November 6, 2003). It talks about the B-deduction, which I still don't get it. Expensive book though.
  • Ewing , A.C. A Short Commentary on Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. The word Short is encouraging but at the same time worrying. Can Kant be explained in a short book one?
  • Forster Eckart. Kant's Transcendental Deductions: The Three Critiques and the Opus Postumum. It seems to be an advanced book.
  • Guyer Paul. Kant and the Claims of Knowledge . Cambridge University Press. Guyer seems to be one of the most important Kant interpreter..
  • Guyer Paul. The Cambridge Companion to Kant . Cambridge University Press; (January 31, 1992). This book, together with Allison book is the most likely to be read. It seems to be simpler to Routledge book.
  • Kuehn Manfred. Kant: A Biography. Cambridge University Press; New Ed edition (August 19, 2002). A Kant biography book. It arrives just behind Guyer and Allison as the book to read. It may be simpler to read the biography first.
  • Langton Rae. Kantian Humility: Our Ignorance of Things in Themselves. Oxford University Press; New Ed edition (March 1, 2001).
  • Longuenesse Beatrice. Kant and the Capacity to Judge : Sensibility and Discursivity in the Transcendental Analytic of the Critique of Pure Reason. Seems interesting since it seems to talk much about Analytic, the most difficult part to grasp so far in Routledge book. But, it seems to be too advanced, I'm not sure she will do better than Gardner to explain Analytic to me.
  • MelnickArthur. Kant's analogies of experience. University of Chicago Press; (1973). An old one, difficult to find.
  • Neiman Susan. The Unity of Reason: Reading Kant. Oxford University Press; Reprint edition (November 1, 1997) . It is mentioned in Routledge book as the first reference for Dialectic.
  • Scruton Roger. Kant: A Very Short Introduction. Oxford University Press; Rev edition (November 1, 2001).Aha, a short one (less than 100 pages), could it be a good book?
  • Smith Norman Kemp, Gardner Sebastien. A Commentary to Kant's 'Critique of Pure Reason'.Palgrave MacMillan; 2nd edition (September 1, 2003). This is Gardner book as well and a classic one. Big book.
  • Strawson Peter F. The Bounds of Sense: An Essay on Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. Routledge; New Ed edition (December 1990). Seems to be an important book. Is it easy enough for me?
  • Van Cleve, James.Problems from Kant. Oxford University Press (2003).
  • Wood Allen W. Kant . Blackwell Publishers; (June 30, 2004). The book title tells everything about the book..:-) It is a very recent book.
