The philosophy of E. Kant is one of the most famous in the history of philosophy. It is admirably an architectonics whose ideas are systematically organised in such a way that anyone who enters it comes out largely and amply refreshed, restored and satisfied with its depth. This is given in his "critical system" in which he was able to carry out a profound revolution that I call "Metaphysical-epistemological-ethical-aesthetic". However, G.W.F. Hegel - recognized as the main critic of Kant - develops a thought that takes the opposite view of Kant's, whose limits he proposes to indicate and whose overcoming he foresees. The present work therefore intends to put these two great thoughts face to face and concludes that between the two, Kant's thought offers us more material. With Kant, there is the possibility of more creativity, innovation, progress, marked by the concern for truth. He thus remains a true master, the model of an open philosophy for our time and our society.
