Research Profile

With broad training in the History of Philosophy, Moral Philosophy, and Metaphysics and Epistemology, Munzel's research specialization is twofold: Kant and ethics. Her book Kant's Conception of Moral Character. The 'Critical' Link of Morality, Anthropology, and Reflective Judgment (Chicago, 1999) has led to a new focus in her Kant research: the relation of his philosophy to the pedagogical debates of the eighteenth-century. Her current work in progress is Immanuel Kant--Philosopher-Educator. The Critical Philosophy and the Rise of Pedagogical Science. A chapter contribution on this topic is published in A Companion to the Philosophy of Education (edited by R. Curren, Blackwell, 2003). A 300-page translation of Kant's 1775/76 Friedlaender Anthropology Lectures is forthcoming in the Cambridge Edition of the Works of Immanuel Kant. The DAAD, Earhart Foundation, and the American Association of University Women Educational Foundation have provided grant support for Munzel's projects.
