Description

This is the first comprehensive study of the roots of the concept of genius in Kant's understanding of nature and his notion of the artist. While many studies have chronicled the Romantic legacy of artistic genius, this book uncovers the roots of the concept of genius in Kant's third Critique, alongside the development of his understanding of nature. Paul Bruno addresses a genuine gap in the existing scholarship by exploring the origins of Kant's thought on aesthetic judgment and particularly the artist. The development of the word 'genius' and its intimate association with the artist played itself out in a rich cultural context, a context that is inescapably significant in Western thought. Bruno shows how in many ways we are still interrogating the ways in which a nature governed by physical laws can be reconciled with a spirit of human creativity and freedom. This book leads us to a better understanding of the centrality of understanding the modern artistic enterprise, characterised as it is by creativity, for modern conceptions of the self. "Continuum Studies in Philosophy" presents cutting-edge scholarship in all the major areas of research and study. The wholly original arguments, perspectives and research findings in titles in this series make it an important and stimulating resource for students and academics from a range of disciplines across the humanities and social sciences. Review "Paul Bruno's clear study examines the concept of genius and offers an insightful reflection on its philosophical sources. His book perceptively discusses Young, Gerard, Herder, and especially Kant, judiciously referring to the secondary literature. This innovative book will help the reader understand Kant's views of taste, art, and genius in connection with his philosophy of nature." - Robert R. Clewis, Gwynedd-Mercy College, USA, author of The Kantian Sublime and the Revelation of Freedom About the Author Paul Bruno is Associate Professor of Philosophy at Framingham State College, Massachusetts, USA.
