Immanuel Kant was the paradigmatic philosopher of the European Enlightenment.

He
eradicated the last traces of the medieval worldview from modern philosophy, joined the
key ideas of earlier rationalism and empiricism into a powerful model of the subjective
origins of the fundamental principles of both science and morality, and laid the ground
for much in the philosophy of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Above all, Kant
was the philosopher of human autonomy, the view that by the use of our own reason in
its broadest sense human beings can discover and live up to the basic principles of
knowledge and action without outside assistance, above all without divine support or
intervention.
