About The Book

This collection of essays by one of the preeminent Kant scholars of our time transforms our understanding of both Kant''s aesthetics and his ethics. Guyer shows that at the very core of Kant''s aesthetic theory disinterestedness of taste becomes an experience of freedom and thus an essential accompaniment to morality itself. At the same time he reveals how Kant''s moral theory includes a distinctive place for the cultivation of both general moral sentiments and particular attachments on the basis of the most rigorous principle of duty. Kant''s thought is placed in a rich historical context including such figures as Shaftesbury Hutcheson Hume Burke Kames as well as Baumgarten Mendelssohn Schiller and Hegel. Other topics treated are the sublime natural versus artistic beauty genius and art history and duty and inclination. These essays extend and enrich the account of Kant''s aesthetics in the author''s earlier book Kant and the Claims of Taste (1979).
