Nietzsche and Kant on Aesthetics and Anthropology - Nietzsche's Engagements with Kant and the Kantian Legacy: Volume III (Hardcover)

Nietzsche and Kant on Aesthetics and Anthropology is dedicated to Nietzsche and 'Kant's own revision of Kant'. Taking up traditional aesthetic questions on beauty, the sublime and originality, this volume also covers anthropological issues of luxury, sociability, human nature, uniquely addressing topics that cut across the two domains and defy any clear-cut classification. Subsequently alongside the role of the senses and the significance of the imagination, contributors consider Kant and Nietzsche's work on laughter, music and genius. They discuss history and historiography, identifying where they intersect with key concepts in aesthetics and the third Critique. But rather than aligning or opposing the two thinkers, Nietzsche and Kant on Aesthetics and Anthropology offers a comparative reading of Nietzsche's and Kant's thoughts on aesthetics and anthropology. By presenting new perspectives of reading these two philosophers, this volume uncovers differences and similarities between the two thinkers and a deeper understanding of their shared philosophical problems.
