Latin Writings, Translations, Commentaries & Notes by Immanuel Kant ....Kant's extant Latin works fall in two groups. First, there are the four academic dissertations presented to the University which led him slowly up the rungs of the academic ladder
to a full professorship in 1770. They are his Ph.D. dissertation, Meditations on Fire, the New Exposition of the First Principles of Metaphysical knowledge (dissertation for Privatdozent appointment), Physical Monadology (dissertation unsuccessfully submitted with his 1st professorship application) & The Form & Principles of the Sensible & the Intelligible World (Inaugural Dissertation of 1770). These works are important for understanding his mature philosophy, which begins with the Critique of Pure Reason. The 2nd group consists of two shorter papers: a rectoral address on philosophy & mental health, & a disputation on rhetorical & aesthetic questions presented at a promotion of a former student to a professorship. These evince the breadth of his interests & are important for the understanding of his treatment of related subjects in the larger German works available in English.
