Béatrice Longuenesse is one of the most important scholars of German philosophy in the past 50 years. This volume features original essays written by Longuenesse’s long-time interlocutors and former students that reflect on the breadth and influence of her work.

In Longuenesse’s earlier work, she shed light on the importance of subtle features of Kant’s and Hegel’s philosophical systems. Her more recent work has built on doctrines concerning the self and self-consciousness from Kant and other philosophers, demonstrating the continued relevance of history of philosophy to contemporary philosophy. The chapters are divided into two thematic sections that 1) read Kant and Hegel and 2) reflect on the state of Kantianism today. The volume concludes with an autobiographical essay written by Longuenesse that reflects on her philosophical journey. Many of the essays engage directly with Longuenesse’s work, while others are written on closely-related themes in a similar spirit. Altogether, the chapters express the ongoing importance of Longuenesse’s accomplishments and the vibrant state of the field.

Kant’s Lasting Legacy will appeal to scholars and advanced students interested in Kant, the history of German philosophy, and philosophy of mind.
