Unfortunately, Prof Forster will not be able to come to London on 1 May—we are trying to reschedule the event sometimes in the autumn

I will use Kant’s various sketches of ‘Introductions’ and ‘Tables of Contents’ to trace the changes in his thoughts about how a ‘Transition from the Metaphysical Foundations of Natural Science to Physics’ might proceed.

Eckart Förster, Professor of Philosophy, with joint appointments in German and the Humanities Center. He is also Honorary Professor of Philosophy at the Humboldt University in Berlin (Germany). Professor Förster previously taught at Oxford, Harvard, Stanford, and the University of Munich, and held visiting appointments at Princeton, Porto Alegre (Brazil), and as Max Kade Professor of Philosophy and German at Ohio State. He has held Guggenheim and ACLS fellowships and spent 1987-88 as a fellow at the Stanford Humanities Center.

Professor Förster is a member of the Kant Kommission of the Berlin-Brandenburgian Academy of Science, and of the Schelling and Jacobi Kommissionen of the Bavarian Academy of Science. He has published widely on Kant and German Idealism, especially on Kant’s Opus postumum, and is the author, most recently, of Kant’s Final Synthesis (Harvard UP, 2000). Other current research interests include Goethe’s philosophy of science, the Pythagorean tradition, and Hölderlin.
