Abstract
The following essay aims to present the philosophical thought of the main exponents of the German Enlightenment, who have directly and indirectly influenced Immanuel Kant's philosophical work. I have focused on the contributions of four of them, Christian Wolff (1679-1754), Alexander Godfrey Baumgarten (1714-1726), John Henry Lambert (1728-1777) and John Nicholas Tetens (1736-1807). The philosophical system of each of the authors will be briefly developed, and it will be sought to clarify what they contributed to the elaboration of Kant's thought, with emphasis on his work The Foundation of the Metaphysics of Morals.
