He lectured and published papers on physics, mathematics, and geography; wrote articles on volcanic eruptions, the nature of winds, tides, the origin of the solar system and the Earth; and even taught fortification and pyrotechnics for a while. But the main guide of his life was philosophy.

Immanuel Kant is a thinker who became the second genius of European philosophy after Plato. Almost all varieties of modern philosophizing somehow go back to I. Kant. His ideas can be transformed, but they continue to live on.
