Absolutely loved this article, you did an awesome job! Beyond some quotes, and knowing he was from Königsberg, I didn't know anything about Kant. You did well to also present him in his actual life, it speaks to us more deeply, makes him "more human"
wow, such a fantastic resource! i learned kant's philosophical principles without knowing much about him, so it's helpful to understand how he built his life around his ideas and ideals. thanks for sharing!
Thank you for a great read and the work put into it. Digesting the massive amount of Kant's work into a simple and eloquent piece - as any writer would know - is extremely difficult.
Great bio-philosophical account of Kant; thank you. Isn’t there an apocryphal story that, on the day that news arrived in Koningsburg that the French Revolution had begun with the attack on the Bastille, that Kant missed his daily walk that day, but resumed it the next day? Is there any truth to this story?
A similar story is often being told but with Kant missing out on his daily walk because he was so taken by the lecture of Rousseau's Émile. It's probably more of a tale than anything rooted in actual fact.
Really proud of this piece — tons of research went into it. Hope you enjoy it!

Excellent piece blending biography and exposition.
Model piece of public education.

Love this. Wrote a book on Foucault and Kant here: https://a.co/d/ji8BB9Q
A lovely write up about 'What a Man'. Thanks. Really enjoyed reading.... in fact listening to it.
Thank you for this piece.
I’ve been struggling to understand Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason, the Max Muller translation.
Would you suggest another?
I have just been reading a few things of Kant!
