Kant

The Amazing Life of Mendelssohn, the Miraculous Musician

About Moses Mendelssohn, grandfather of the great composer - The great work of the Jewish philosopher who was also respected by Kant

Moses, grandfather of composer Felix Mendelssohn.

He was a poor Jew from the ghetto of Dessau, but in just one generation he became one of the leading philosophers in Europe. He was called the "Socrates of Germany" and "Plato of our time," and was so highly regarded that even Kant and Goethe were impressed by him.

This article introduces such feats of Moses.

The Amazing Life of Mendelssohn, the Miraculous Musician

The Mendelssohn Family - Three Generations of Jews - A Miraculous Book! The amazing story of the Mendelssohn family, the genius of the German composer!

I highly recommend this biography as well! It is a miracle book! You will be amazed by the large amount of amazing things you will read!

That my grandfather Moses was a great philosopher. And that his father Abraham also founded a bank so large that it was at one time on par with that Rothschild.

This was a shocking fact. I was particularly taken aback by the fact that my grandfather Moses was such a man that Kant respected him!

British and German Literature, History and Culture

Arseniy Griga, "Kant: His Life and Thought" - A book that explains the thought and historical background. Also relations with Dostoevsky and Tolstoy.

The author, Arnisei Griga, is a researcher on the Soviet Union. In the past, research on the Soviet Union was often laced with ideology, but this book was originally written in 1977, so there is no sense of ideology.

The book is also unique in that it looks at Kant from the unique perspective of a Soviet researcher and his relationship with Dostoevsky and Tolstoy.

Although it may seem a bit demanding as an introductory book, it is very useful to learn about the social conditions and cultural background of the period in which Kant was active. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about Kant.

Ikuo Ishii, "Kant's Life: The Gigantic Reservoir of Philosophy" - Recommended Kant biography to learn about the person and historical background.

This biography is a great introduction to Kant. The book gives a clear explanation of who Kant was in the first place, what kind of environment he was born in, and what his life was like. In any case, it is an easy read.

Kant has the image of a difficult philosopher. I have tried many times to read Kant's writings, but each time I bounced back and failed.

Anyway, it is difficult to understand! Canto was a huge wall for me as well.

But even so, I wondered if there was any way I could learn a little bit about Kant, so I picked up this book.

And this book has met my expectations with flying colors. I would highly recommend this biography.
