Editor's Introduction
This advertisement of the publication of Johann Heinrich Lambert's correspondence appeared in the 4 February 1782 issue of the Königsbergsche Gelehrte und Politische Zeitungen. That Kant is the author is established by a letter from him to Johann Bernoulli on 22 February 1782 (10:280). For a brief biographical sketch of Lambert as well as Kant's correspondence with him, see Immanuel Kant: Correspondence, translated and edited by Arnulf Zweig (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1999), e.g., pp. 590–1.
Notice.
The project by Herr Joh. Bernoulli, announced previously in this newspaper, [namely] to publish the posthumous writings of the famous Lambert on subscription, has been carried out in accordance with the well-established diligence of that commendable scholar so quickly that the first volume of Lambert's correspondence has already been published in Berlin (in Dec. 1781).
