</span></i></b></span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">The influence of Immanuel Kant's work on philosophy and the Humanities in general has been sustained across more than two centuries, but earlier orthodox understandings
and glosses, focused on major texts and central concepts, have now given way to careful analysis of less obvious but important notions, which also have implications for contemporary philosophy. In particular, closer examination of various texts, which have
been neglected in the past, such as the <i>Anthropology </i> and the writings on religion, has opened up new interpretive directions. This seminar brings together scholars working on Kant with the goal of emphasising new perspectives and interpretative angles. </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
