The Pragmatic Use of Kant’s Physical Geography Lectures

In Stuart Elden & Eduardo Mendieta (eds.), Reading Kant's Geography. State University of New York Press (2011)
Abstract Kant gave lectures on physical geography and anthropology and called them cosmopolitan philosophy. His physical geography lectures were intended to teach students not just facts but also how to have practical judgment (Klugheit) and were to prepare students for their place in the world. This article shows how the physical geography lectures were organized for that purpose.
