Abstract

As the contemporary development of his philosophical project, the Kant's Lectures on anthropology - that make up the still little explored volume XXV of the Akademie - authorize a review of them from conclusive version, Anthropology from a pragmatic point of view, as well as of the place occupied by the doctrine of knowledge of the human being in the corpus critical. It is suggested in this study the cultivation of the faculties as a linkage between the previous lessons and the edition of 1798 and likewise a concept able to accommodate this doctrine to the Revolution in the way of thinking accomplished by Kant.
