Immanuel Kant

From Geography

Life

Immanuel Kant was born in 1724 in Köningsberg (now known as Kaliningrad). From 1755 he started teaching Philosophy at the University of Köningsberg. The teaching system at the University of Köningsberg at that time was based on teachers offering courses. They were not being payed by the University, but received pay directly from their students.

Works

Immanuel Kant never published about the subject of Geography himself. The writings we know today are based on lectures which have been put together from student transcripts.
