Routledge - The Role of Taste in Kant's Theory of Cognition

Explore a deep historical investigation into the foundations of twentieth-century analytic philosophy. Originally a Ph.D. dissertation from Harvard University, this Routledge Library Edition examines the importance of the primacy of judgment and its historical roots. In this work, Ginsborg focuses on Kant's Critique of Judgement to analyze the specific nature of a judgment of taste. The text investigates how such judgments maintain intersubjective validity without relying on objective concepts. This book serves as a significant resource for those studying the history of Western philosophy and the development of analytic thought through the lens of Kantian theory.
