? ? ? ? TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE.
The following translation has been undertaken with the hope of rendering Kant's Kritik der reinen Vermmft intelligible to the English student.
The difficulties which meet the reader and the translator of this celebrated work arise from various causes. Kant was a man of clear, vigorous, and trenchant thought, and, after nearly twelve years' meditation, could not be in doubt as to his own system. But the Horatian rule of
Verba pravisam rem non invita sequentur,
will not apply to him. He had never studied the art of ex pression. He wearies by frequent repetitions, and employs a great number of words to express, in the clumsiest way, what could have been enounced more clearly and distinctly in a few. The main statement in his sentences is often over laid with a multitude of qualifying and explanatory clauses ; and the reader is lost in a maze, from which he has great difficulty in extricating himself. There are some passages which have no main verb ; others, in which the author loses sight of the subject with which he set out, and concludes with a predicate regarding something else mentioned in the course
of his argument. All this can be easily accounted for. Kant, as he mentions in a letter to Lambert, took nearly twelve
? ? ? ? tkanslatob' a freface.
years to excogitate his work, and only five months to write it He was a German professor, a student of solitary habits, and had never, except on one occasion, been out of Kcmigs- berg. He had, besides, to propound a new system of philoso phy, and to enounce ideas th. -. t were entirely to revolutionise European thought . On the other hand, there are many excellencies of style in this work. His expression is often as precise and forcible as his thought ; and, in some of his notes especially, he sums up, in two or three apt and powerful words, thoughts which, at other times, he employs pages to develope.

? ? ? ? TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE.
The following translation has been undertaken with the hope of rendering Kant's Kritik der reinen Vermmft intelligible to the English student.
The difficulties which meet the reader and the translator of this celebrated work arise from various causes. Kant was a man of clear, vigorous, and trenchant thought, and, after nearly twelve years' meditation, could not be in doubt as to his own system. But the Horatian rule of
Verba pravisam rem non invita sequentur,
will not apply to him. He had never studied the art of ex pression. He wearies by frequent repetitions, and employs a great number of words to express, in the clumsiest way, what could have been enounced more clearly and distinctly in a few. The main statement in his sentences is often over laid with a multitude of qualifying and explanatory clauses ; and the reader is lost in a maze, from which he has great difficulty in extricating himself. There are some passages which have no main verb ; others, in which the author loses sight of the subject with which he set out, and concludes with a predicate regarding something else mentioned in the course
of his argument. All this can be easily accounted for. Kant, as he mentions in a letter to Lambert, took nearly twelve
? ? ? ? tkanslatob' a freface.
years to excogitate his work, and only five months to write it He was a German professor, a student of solitary habits, and had never, except on one occasion, been out of Kcmigs- berg. He had, besides, to propound a new system of philoso phy, and to enounce ideas th. -. t were entirely to revolutionise European thought . On the other hand, there are many excellencies of style in this work. His expression is often as precise and forcible as his thought ; and, in some of his notes especially, he sums up, in two or three apt and powerful words, thoughts which, at other times, he employs pages to develope.
