Kant actually DID give me a laugh once, when I found a book called "The Popular Works of Immanuel Kant". It was a very short and thin book.

Actually, Kant was a popular lecturer and public speaker, who offered great adult ed courses to the community.

Last century I took course in Kant from Professor Leslie Stevenson. He insisted that Kant put jokes in the Critique and showed them to us. I can't find them anymore, but I remember laughing at the time!

I've read about how their students loved his jokes

However, if you have a table with a shoogly leg, it is a valuable and worthwhile tome. The fun bit is when you have to return it to the library and can't remember where you have put it.

That's because the Critique of Practical Reason is intended as the punchline - "Christian morality vindicated after all, LOL!"
