Notes
1. It appeared soon after Michaelmas 1796, but with the year 1797 on the title-page. This has given rise to some confusion regarding the date of the first Edition, which is now usually quoted as 1796-7. (Schubert, Kant's Werke, Bd. ix. viii., and Biographie, p. 145.)
2. Die Metaphysik der Sitten. Erster Theil. Metaphysische Anfangsgründe der Rechtslehre. Königsberg, 1797.
3. Grundlegung zur Metaphysik der Sitten. Translated by Willich (1798), Semple (1836), and Abbott (1873).
4. These Supplementary Explanations were appended by Kant to the First Part of the work, to which most of their detail more directly apply; but they are more conveniently appended in this translation to the whole work, an arrangement which has also been adopted by the other Translators.

6. Elementa Metaphysica Juris Doctrinae. Latine vertit G. L. König. Amstel. 1800, 8. (Warnkönig and others erroneously refer it to Gotha.)

9. The Preface and the Introductions (infra, pp. 1-58, 259-265) have been translated by Mr. Semple. See The Metaphysic of Ethics by Immanuel Kant, translated by J. W. Semple, Advocate. Fourth Ed. Edited with Introduction by Rev. Henry Calderwood, LL.D., Professor of Moral Philosophy, University of Edinburgh. Edin.: T. & T. Clark, 1886.—These are indispensable parts of the present work, but they have been translated entirely anew.
10. He ceased lecturing in 1797; and the only works of any importance published by himself subsequent to the Rechtslehre, were the Metaphysische Anfangsgründe der Tugendlehre in 1797, and Der Streit der Facultäten and the Anthropologie in 1798. The Logik was edited by Jäsche in 1800; the Physische Geographie by Rink in 1802, and the Pädagogik, also by Rink, in 1803, the year before Kant's death.
11. Kritik der reinen Vernunft. Translated anew by Max Müller (1881).
12. Kritik der praktischen Vernunft. Translated by Abbott.
13. Kritik der Urtheilskraft. Translated into French by M. Barni.
14. Fichte's Nachgelassene Werke, 2 Bd. System der Rechtslehre (1804), 498, etc. (Bonn, 1834.) Fichte's Grundlage des Naturrechts (1796), as he himself points out, was published before Kant's Rechtslehre, but its principles are all essentially Kantian. (Translated by Kroeger, Philadelphia, 1870.)
15. Hegel's Werke, Bd. i. Philosophische Abhandlungen, iv. Ueber die Wissenschaftlichen Behandlungsarten des Naturrechts (1802-3); and the Grundlinien der Philosophie des Rechts, oder Naturrecht und Staatswissenschaft im Grundrisse (1821). Werke, Bd. viii. (passim). Dr. J. Hutchison Stirling's Lectures on the Philosophy of Law present a most incisive and suggestive introduction to Hegel's Philosophy of Right.
16. Die beiden Grundprobleme der Ethik (1841), pp. 118-9.
17. Grundlinien einer Kritik der bisherigen Sittenlehre (1803). Entwurf eines Systems der Sittenlehre, herausg. von A. Schweizer (1835). Grundriss der philosophischen Ethik, von A. Twesten (1841). Die Lehre vom Staat, herausg. von Ch. A. Brandes (1845).
18. Grundlage des Naturrechts (1803). Abriss des Systems der Philosophie des Rechts oder des Naturrechts (1828). Krause is now universally recognised as the definite founder of the organic and positive school of Natural Right. His principles have been ably expounded by his two most faithful followers, Ahrens (Cours de Droit Naturel, 7th ed. 1875) and Röder (Grundzüge des Naturrechts o. der Rechtsfilosofie, 2 Auf. 1860). Professor J. S. del Rio of Madrid has vividly expounded and enthusiastically advocated Krause's system in Spanish. Professor Lorimer of the Edinburgh University, while maintaining an independent and critical attitude towards the various Schools of Jurisprudence, is in close sympathy with the Principles of Krause (The Institutes of Law: a Treatise of the Principles of Jurisprudence as determined by Nature, 2nd ed. 1880, and The Institutes of the Law of Nations). He has clearly indicated his agreement with the Kantian School, so far as its principles go (Instit. p. 336, n.).
19. This applies to the latest German discussions and doctrines. The following works may be referred to as the most important recent contributions, in addition to those mentioned above (such as Ahrens and Röder, xi. n.):—Trendelenburg, Naturrecht auf dem Grunde der Ethik, 2 Auf. 1868. Post, Das Naturgesetz des Rechts, 1867. W. Arnold, Cultur und Rechtsleben, 1865. Ulrici, Naturrecht, 1873. Zoepfl, Grundriss zu Vorlesungen über Rechtsphilosophie, 1878. Rudolph von Ihering, Der Zweck im Recht, i. 1877, ii. 1883. Professor Frohschammer of Munich has discussed the problem of Right in a thoughtful and suggestive way from the standpoint of his original and interesting System of Philosophy, in his new volume, Ueber die Organisation und Cultur der menschlichen Gesellschaft, Philosophische Untersuchungen über Recht und Staat, sociales Leben und Erziehung, 1885.
