This intellectual biography of Immanuel Kant's early years— from 1746 when he wrote his first book, to 1766 when he lost his faith in metaphysics —makes an outstanding contribution to Kant scholarship. Sch�nfeld meticulously examines most of Kant's early works, summarizes their content, and exhibits their shortcomings and strengths. He places the early theories in their historical context and describes the scientific discoveries and philosophical innovations that distinguish Kant's pre-critical works. Sch�nfeld argues that these works were all aspects of a single project carried out by Kant to reconcile metaphysical and scientific perspectives and combine them into a coherent model of nature.

reviewed The Philosophy of the Young Kant: The Precritical Project on August 22, 2012 The Philosophy of the Young Kant
While I'm not sure that I agree with all of Danto's arguments, I do appreciate his rigor and style. He writes for both philosophers (read: some academic language and syntax) and the common reader. I am aware that I'm inviting an obvious objection, so I'll pre-empt it: yes, you would get more out of the text if you studied philosophy somewhat discursively. However, I wouldn't just call what he does simply name dropping. He makes his points while crediting the thinker. And the best part is that his treatments result in very little, if any, distortion of the original thinker, though one might raise some minor quibbles.
My major beef is that I did not like his style of citations, because I couldn't locate at least one quotation that I wanted to follow up on. I would have preferred him axe the index in favor of footnotes or endnotes.
By far, the best essays for me were "Philosophy as/and/of Literature" and "Philosophizing Literature". But that is probably because I studied and continue to study philosophy while teaching English.
