«Critique de la raison pratique» is the philosophical essay by Emmanuel Kant, published by Folio in paperback (256 pages, in French).
Kant addresses morality from practical reason and argues that a universal moral law imposes itself on every rational consciousness, regardless of experience. Against theoretical knowledge, he analyzes how freedom and duty guide ethical action; the work concludes with his famous evocation of the starry sky and the moral law within the human being.
The German original was published in 1788 as «Kritik der praktischen Vernunft»; this French edition includes a translation by Luc Ferry and Heinz Wismann, edited by Ferdinand Alquié.
A reference work for philosophy students and for those approaching German Enlightenment thought and Kantian ethics.
Immanuel Kant was a German philosopher. Born in Königsberg in the Kingdom of Prussia, he is considered one of the central thinkers of the Enlightenment. His comprehensive and systematic works in epistemology, metaphysics, logic, ethics, aesthetics, political theory, and the philosophy of religion have made him one of the most influential and highly discussed figures in modern Western philosophy.
