"The concept of spontaneity is central to Kant's philosophy, yet
Kant himself never dealt with it explicitly. Instead it was
presented as an insoluble problem concerning human reason. The
ambiguity surrounding his approach to this problem is surprising
when one considers that he was a philosopher who based his
theoretical programme on the critique of the faculties of
knowledge, feeling and desire. However, this ambiguity seems to
have avoided up to now any possible critique. This highly original
book presents the first full-length study of the problem of
spontaneity in Kant. Marco Sgarbi demonstrates that spontaneity is
a crucial concept in relation to every aspect of Kant's thought. He
begins by reconstructing the history of the concept of spontaneity
in the German Enlightenment prior to Kant and goes on to define
knowing, thinking, acting and feeling as spontaneous activities of
the mind that in turn determine Kant's logic, ethics and
aesthetics. Ultimately Sgarbi shows that the notion of spontaneity
is key to understanding both Kant's theoretical and practical
philosophy."
