About this title

Review

'Denis has assembled an outstanding collection of essays that are dedicated to critically exploring Kant's Metaphysics of Morals. This is an invaluable guide for reading a crucial text within the Kantian corpus.' Chris McTavish, Philosophy in Review

'The book attempts to bridge the gap between German and English-language scholarship. Flikschuh, Wood, and Byrd in particular incorporate German secondary literature.' Georg Cavallar, The European Legacy

Book Description

In this volume of newly-commissioned essays, a distinguished team of contributors explores the Metaphysics of Morals in relation to Kant's earlier works, as well as examining the themes which emerge from the text itself, including the connections between right and virtue, and topics such as property, punishment, and moral feelings.
