The Critique Of Modern Reason, The Critique Of Practical Reason And Other Ethical Treatises, The Critique Of Judgement (Britannica Great Books of The Western World, v. 42)

by Emmanuel Kant

Blurb

"On Critique of Pure Reason: The text rendered by Pluhar is the work of an expert translator. . . the virtues of his text are manifold; his translation exhibits an incontrovertible mastery of both English and German. Equally important is the fact that Pluhar has given the original a very close read during the act of translating. . . . Pluhar consistently resists the tendency to translate woodenly word-for-word. . . . In point of fact, accuracy of translation stands in no direct relation to literalness; it is much more a product of meticulous textual reading and skilful writing, and in this respect Pluhar has no modern equals in English Kant translation." --James Jakob Fehr, Kant-Studien
