Kant: Critique of the Power of Judgment (Week 1 – Preface & Introduction)
Details
We continue with Kant's Critiques, now onto the third which examines the beautiful, sublime, and teleology as occasions where our senses are originally related to our understanding (judgment of taste), as well as how the understanding originally relates to reason (teleological judgment).
No prior experience with Kant is necessary.
This week's reading: First Introduction (optional), Preface and Introduction (3 - 82, 79 pages)
Note: Meetings focus on developing a common language and friendship through studying Kant. The host will provide an interpretation of Kant; other interpretations will not be discussed until later in the meeting. Additional interpretations, topics, and questions can be addressed through the Jitsi chat feature.
