Kant-Lexikon

Kant’s revolutionary new approach to philosophy was accompanied by the introduction of a largely novel terminology. This led to the publication of a number of commentaries, dictionaries and compendia even while he was still alive. Although a tradition of Kant dictionaries developed over the centuries, no lexical reference work has been available for a considerable time which gives the modern reader access to his work on the basis of present-day editions and takes into account 20th century research and advances in lexicology. It is to meet this need that a new three-volume Kant Lexicon is in preparation. With some 2,500 entries, it will provide a comprehensive compendium containing all of the philosophically relevant terms, all the personal names referred to by Kant and relevant to his philosophy, together with all the titles of his works. More than 200 international scholars take part in this project.
