Podcast Resources on Immanuel Kant's Prolegomena To Any Future Metaphysics

41 podcast lectures covering every key idea, argument, and distinction in the work

Some time back, I produced a resource page containing organized links to all 41 of my core concept videos on Immanuel Kant’s work Prolegomena To Any Future Metaphysics. A little while ago, I took those video lectures and edited each of them into a corresponding Sadler’s Lectures podcast episode. Usually, I would produce a resource page that contains links to both the video and podcast lectures. But given how many videos and podcasts there are on this work, I thought perhaps they could use separate resource pages.

So that’s what I’m providing here, the second resource page, with links just to all the podcast episodes. They cover every part and each key idea in the work, and might be a useful resource for anyone who decides they’d like to study that text.

If you’d like to get yourself a copy of the text I used for this series, here’s an Amazon affiliate link to the Prolegomena. And now, on to the links to podcast lectures, sorted according to each of the sections of the work.
