The following bibliography of Kant’s writings is ordered chronologically by date of publication, except for eight posthumously published writings, which are ordered by their presumed date of composition: On Fire (1755), Sensory Illusion (1777), Kraus Review (1788), Philosopher’s Medicine (1788?), First Introduction (1789; to the Kritik der Urteilskraft), Schultz Review (1790), Progress in Metaphysics (1793), and the Opus postumum. Of these eight texts, two can be considered as finished texts (On Fire and First Introduction). NB: Published lecture notes (other than the four approved by Kant) are not included on this page; they are listed on their own page.
Individual writings can also be located using an alphabetized index (includes variant English titles), or the Kant-Studien Siglenverzeichnis. [See index organized by decade]

Bibliographical Entries: The original title is given, followed by its first publication and where it is reprinted in the Academy edition (AA = Akademie Ausgabe) of Kant’s writings (these page numbers include just the text, omitting introductory title pages and other blank pages). This is followed by a standard translation of the title into English (following the Cambridge Edition of Kant’s writings in English translation, when available), and one or more published translations of the text itself into English, if available.
Anonymously Published Writings: Theory of the Heavens (1755), On the Adventurer Komarnicki (1764), Maladies of the Head (1764), Silberschlag (1764), Dreams of a Spirit-Seer (1766), Review of Moscati (1771), Philanthropinum (1776-77), Lambert’s Letters (1782), Review of Herder 1-3 (1785), Fanaticism (1790).
Johann Heinrich Tieftrunk [bio], a professor at Halle, was authorized by Kant to publish his shorter writings, making Teiftrunk’s three-plus-one-volume edition – Imanuel Kant’s vermischte Schriften (1799) [contents], plus an additional volume gathering items located after 1799: Immanuel Kant’s vermischte Schriften. Vierter Band. (1807) [contents] – the first authorized edition of Kant’s writings; the location in Tieftrunk (if the text was included) is indicated at the end of each individual entry.
In preparing this list, I have benefitted at several points from the corresponding list of publications prepared by Werner Stark at Immanuel Kant: Information Online, as well as Borowski [1804, 44-83], Adickes [1970], and Warda [1919].
