The Critique of Judgment - Enriched edition

Immanuel Kant

Beschreibung

In "The Critique of Judgment," Immanuel Kant meticulously explores the intricate relationship between aesthetics and teleology, positioning judgment as a critical faculty that bridges the domains of the sublime and the beautiful. This seminal work is divided into two main sections, the Critique of Aesthetic Judgment and the Critique of Teleological Judgment, offering profound insights into the nature of human perception and the principles governing our appreciation of art and nature. Kant employs a distinctive philosophical style, combining rigorous analysis with eloquent prose, reflecting the Enlightenment's quest for objectivity and universality amidst subjective experiences. Immanuel Kant, a central figure in modern Western philosophy, was significantly influenced by the Enlightenment ideals of reason and freedom. Writing "The Critique of Judgment" in 1790, he sought to bridge the gap between empiricist and rationalist thought, examining how aesthetic values and notions of purpose resonate within human consciousness. Kant's rich intellectual heritage, including his engagement with the works of Rousseau and Hume, profoundly shaped his inquiries into the aesthetic and teleological dimensions of human experience. This book is essential for those interested in philosophy, art, and science, offering a fundamental understanding of how we evaluate and appreciate beauty and purpose. Readers will find Kant's reflections not only intellectually stimulating but also highly relevant to contemporary discussions surrounding aesthetics and the nature of judgment.

Wake Up America - Black Women on...

Keisha N. Blain

In 1968, civil rights activist Fannie Lou Hamer called for Americans to "wake up" if they wanted to "make democracy a reality." Today, as Black communities continue to face challenges built on centuries of discrimination, her plea is increasingly urgent. In this exhilarating anthology of original essays, Keisha N. Blain brings together the voices of major progressive Black women politicians, grassroots activists, and intellectuals to offer critical insights on how we can create a more equitable political future. 
 
 
 
These women draw on their diverse experiences and expertise to speak to three core themes: claiming civil and human rights, building political and economic power, and combating all forms of hate. We hear from Black Lives Matter cofounder Alicia Garza, who argues that Black communities must organize to wield increased political power; EMILYs List president Laphonza Butler, who spells out ways to fight for women's reproductive rights; and Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, who delineates practical, thorough steps toward tangible reparations. Additional incisive essays include those by former Ohio State Senator Nina Turner; prison abolitionist Mariame Kaba; disability rights activist Andraéa LaVant; Boston's first woman and first Black mayor, Kim Michelle Janey; and others at the forefront of the ongoing fight for social justice.
