This work by Immanuel Kant explores the foundations of moral philosophy and the nature of practical reason. As a seminal text from the late eighteenth century, it presents significant challenges for language learners. The vocabulary is highly technical, focusing on abstract philosophical concepts. You will encounter long, complex sentences with intricate logical structures that require careful reading. This book is suitable for those interested in German intellectual history who wish to engage with rigorous, formal prose and demanding grammatical constructions.

Questions about this book
What level of German do I need for this book?
The estimate is C1, based on how common the words are and how long the sentences run. It is an approximation, not a test result. With a translation under every sentence you can start one level earlier than you would with a paper copy.
Is this book really free?
Yes. The text is in the public domain and comes from Project Gutenberg, so it costs nothing. In Lingo7 you open the book and read the first page for free; a subscription unlocks the whole library, the audio and the word practice.
How does reading with a translation work?
Lingo7 shows the original sentence and, right under it, the same sentence in your language. Tap a word to see what it means, hear it, and save it for practice. The translation is made while you read, so it works for any book and for 49 languages.
How long does it take to read?
About 5 h 41 min at a native pace, spread over 44 chapters. In a foreign language plan for more: half an hour a day finishes a book of this size in a few weeks.
