Abstract

In light of the 300th anniversary of Immanuel Kant's birth, Ante and Oliver discuss his status as one of the most influential thinkers of the modern era. It is hard to fully capture all the ways in which he has influenced our culture. In a way, we are all Kantians to some degree, whether we know it or not. To that end, they explore his background, the context in which he worked, some troublesome aspects of his legacy, his groundbreaking essay "What is Enlightenment?", his stress on freedom and the importance of thinking for oneself, his take on religion, all peppered with some autobiographical asides.
