Abstract
Immanuel kant was born in Königsberg, Prussia in 1724. He studied philosophy, mathematics and physics at the University of Königsberg, and became a renowned teacher and scholar thanks to his works on reason, knowledge and judgment. Indeed, he intended to explain rationalism, and therefore explored the mechanisms of thought. He founded the criticism with works such as the Critique of the pure reason (1781), the Critique of the practical reason (1787), and the Critique of the faculty of judgment (1790). By "pure reason", he meant the part of the thought that is independent from experience but he insisted on the necessity to link rationalism and empirism. In that regard, we can say that kant was not committed in the debates of his time. Still, in What is Enlightenment? (1784), he took part in the contemporary reflection through his work on universal history from a cosmopolitan viewpoint.
