Just as those who in principle can read Latin will be grateful to have a translation at hand that will help them through the text, readers of Kant's Groundwork will be grateful to be provided an edition that allows them to compare the original text on the left side with its translation on the right, line by line … it is to be hoped that this book finds many readers, both in introductory and advanced classes.

In this book, Immanuel Kant formulates and justifies a supreme principle of morality that issues universal and unconditional moral commands. These commands receive their normative force from the fact that rational agents autonomously impose the moral law upon themselves. As such, they are laws of freedom. This volume contains the first facing-page German-English edition of Kant's Groundwork. It presents an authentic edition of the German text and a carefully revised version of Mary Gregor's acclaimed English translation, as well as editorial notes and a full bilingual index. It will be the edition of choice for any student or scholar who is not content with reading this central contribution to modern moral philosophy through the veil of English translation.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eAcknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Introductory note: text and translation\u003cbr\u003e Kant: Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals: Vorrede Preface\u003cbr\u003e Erster Abschnitt First section\u003cbr\u003e Zweyter Abschnitt Second section\u003cbr\u003e Dritter Abschnitt Third section\u003cbr\u003e Editorial notes\u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Ethics \u0026amp; moral philosophy [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Ethics \u0026amp; moral philosophy\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Ethics%20\u0026amp;%20moral%20philosophy%20%5BHPQ%5D%22\"\u003eHPQ\u003c\/a\u003e], Western philosophy: c 1600 to c 1900 [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Western philosophy: c 1600 to c 1900\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Western%20philosophy:%20c%201600%20to%20c%201900%20%5BHPCD%5D%22\"\u003eHPCD\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46001412374808,"sku":"9781107615908","price":24.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781107615908i.jpg?v=1696770001","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/immanuel-kant-groundwork-of-the-metaphysics-of-morals-a-german-english-edition-paperback-9781107615908","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
