Kant, Immanuel: Neue Reflexionen. Die frühen Notate zu Baumgartens ›Metaphysik‹
Mit Übersetzung der lateinischen Notate sowie des Textes Baumgartens
von Immanuel Kant, herausgegeben von Lothar KreimendahlKants um 1755/56 anlässlich eines Metaphysik-Kollegs niedergeschriebene Notate zu Baumgartens ›Metaphysica‹ sind 2019 in der Reihe FMDA erstmals veröffentlicht worden. Die vorliegende Studienausgabe bringt dieses erst im Jahr 2000 aufgefundene Textmaterial in geänderter Präsentation. Der Bezugstext der Notate, Baumgartens ›Metaphysica‹, wird in deutscher Übersetzung geboten. Übersetzt sind ebenfalls die in lateinischer Sprache verfassten Notate Kants. Des Weiteren wird eine präzisierte Zuordnung der Bemerkungen Kants zu den betreffenden Textstellen bei Baumgarten vorgenommen. Schwer verständliche Passagen werden paraphrasiert und fragmentarische Bemerkungen mit ausführlichen Erläuterungen versehen. Diese Aufbereitung des Textmaterials gestattet einen klaren Blick auf Kants frühe metaphysische Überzeugungen inklusive seiner Kritik an Baumgartens rationalistischem Konzept.
