TODAY IN PHILOSOPHY OF HISTORY: Immanuel Kant and the Hope for Cosmological Progress
Monday 22 April 2024 is the tricentennial of the birth of Immanuel Kant (22 April 1724 to 12 February 1804), who was born three hundred years ago today in Königsberg, now Kaliningrad, on this day in 1724.
Kant is counted among the greatest of philosophers, and his legacy is both large and complicated. Reconstructing his philosophy of history we find elements of providentialism, progressivism, and naturalism, all unified by Kant’s Enlightenment outlook. These several parallel influences in Kant’s thought yields a distinctive conception of historical progress in which human beings are a means to a cosmological end.
