    Study Notes

    Summary Title: Immanuel Kant's Critique of Judgment

    • The Critique of Judgment is a book by Immanuel Kant published in 1790.
    • It is the third critique in Kant's critical project.
    • The book is divided into two main sections: the Critique of Aesthetic Judgment and the Critique of Teleological Judgment.
    • The first part of the book discusses the four possible aesthetic reflective judgments: the agreeable, the beautiful, the sublime, and the good.
    • The central concept of Kant's analysis of the judgment of beauty is what he called the ″free play″ between the cognitive powers of imagination and understanding.
    • The judgment that something is sublime is a judgment that it is beyond the limits of comprehension.
    • The second half of the Critique discusses teleological judgement.
    • Kant attempted to legitimize purposive categories in the life sciences, without a theological commitment.
    • Kant held that there was no purpose represented in the aesthetic judgement of an object's beauty.
    • The book's form is the result of concluding that beauty can be explained by examining the concept of suitableness.
    • Kant is inconsistent, according to Schopenhauer, because "...after it had been incessantly repeated in the Critique of Pure Reason that the understanding is the ability to judge, and after the forms of its judgements are made the foundation–stone of all philosophy, a quite peculiar power of judgement now appears which is entirely different from that ability."
    • With regard to teleological judgement, Schopenhauer claimed that Kant tried to say only this: "...although organized bodies necessarily seem to us as though they were constructed according to a conception of purpose which preceded them, this still does not justify us in assuming it to be objectively the case."
