Lectures on Logic (The Cambridge Edition of the Works of Immanuel Kant in Translation)Lectures on Logic (The Cambridge Edition of the Works of Immanuel Kant in Translation)

Kant's views on logic and logical theory play an important part in his critical writings, especially in the Critique of Pure Reason. This volume includes three previously untranslated transcripts of Kant's logic lectures: the Blomberg Logic (1770s); the Vienna Logic supplemented by the recently discovered Hechsel Logic (1780s); and the Dohna-Wundlacken Logic (1790s). Also included is a new translation of the Jäsche Logic, compiled at Kant's request from his lectures and published in 1800.
