In the realm of philosophy, few clashes have been as monumental as the showdown between Immanuel Kant and Hegel. Kant, the champion of transcendental idealism, fought against Hegel’s dialectical method. As the two intellectual giants clashed, their theories collided like tectonic plates. Kant’s concept of a priori knowledge challenged Hegel’s belief in the continuous synthesis of ideas. Despite their differences, both philosophers left an indelible mark on the field of metaphysics.
