Werner S. Pluhar is Affiliate Professor of Philosophy, Pennsylvania State University, Fayette.
On Critique of Pure Reason : The text rendered by Pluhar is the
work of an expert translator. . . the virtues of his text are
manifold; his translation exhibits an incontrovertible mastery of
both English and German. Equally important is the fact that Pluhar
has given the original a very close read during the act of
translating. . . . Pluhar consistently resists the tendency to
translate woodenly word-for-word. . . . In point of fact, accuracy
of translation stands in no direct relation to literalness; it is
much more a product of meticulous textual reading and skilful
writing, and in this respect Pluhar has no modern equals in English
Kant translation. --James Jakob Fehr, Kant-Studien
On Critique of Judgment : Pluhar maintains a fine, even tone
throughout. . . . Those who have found the prospect of teaching the
third Critique daunting will admire its clarity. . . . No one will
be disappointed. --Timothy Sean Quinn, The Review of Metaphysics
