Among modern philosophers, Immanuel Kant (1724 1804) has few rivals for his influence over the development of contemporary philosophy as a whole. While the issue of language has become a key fulcrum of continental philosophy since the twentieth century, Kant has been overlooked as a thinker whose breadth of insight has helped to spearhead this advance.The Linguistic Dimension of Kant s Thought remedies this historical gap by gathering new essays by distinguished Kant scholars. The chapters examine the many ways that Kant s philosophy addresses the nature of language. Although language as a formal structure of thought and expression has always been part of the philosophical tradition, the linguistic dimension of these essays speaks to language more broadly as a practice including communication, exchange, and dialogue.
