The year 2004, the 200 th anniversary of th e death of Immanuel Kant, saw the commemorations of the great philosopher all ov er the world. Why is the study of Kant so popular and lasting? What is the reali stic significance of a historical philosophy for our own times? Which thoughts i n the history of philosophy are outdated and which are still effectual? This ess ay, in memory of Kant, discusses several issues concerning the methodology of th e philosophical history, and attempts to explain from the perspective of hermene utics that the historical status of a philosopher lies in his approaches to solv e the philosophical problems with which he is faced. And the origin of Kantianis m’s lasting values lies in the fact that we are facing the same problems Kant f aced, therefore his solutions are probably still effectual today.
