The Philosophy department of Calcutta University was a seat of learning and great scholars like Rashbehari Das and others used to teach the philosophy of Immanuel Kant. Kant, a thorough disciplinarian, was often referred to as the Saint of Konigsberg. Kant used to go for morning walks and he was such a disciplinarian that on seeing him coming out of his house, the municipality official used to wound the clock and the milkmen started leaving for delivery.
