Heinrich von Kleist was one of the most important writers of German romanticism and his proposal continues to have great influence to this day. For its part, the philosophy of Immanuel Kant is fundamental for universal thought, and in one way or another it has marked contemporary thought. In short, both characters are intertwined and their intellectual encounter is very famous among Kantians. The crisis that Kleist experienced when faced with the work of the Königsberg philosopher produced a radical change in his thinking, leading him to search, in his short life, for answers to Kantian dilemmas and turning him into a prolific writer. What did Kleist find in Kant? This is the fundamental question that runs through this book, which not only addresses Kleist's work, closely related to Kant's, but also offers us the translation of two of his essential works.
