Both by its content, and by etymology, "Prolegomenon" and "Prolegomena" should probably redirect to
Prologue, not Introduction. Prolegomena establish the fundamental terms of a scientific paper or treatise, but they do not serve the purpose of an introduction, as detailed in this article. This is why Kant can write his
