In this book Robert R. Clewis shows how certain crucial concepts in
Kant's aesthetics and practical philosophy - the sublime,
enthusiasm, freedom, empirical and intellectual interests, the idea
of a republic - fit together and deepen our understanding of Kant's
philosophy. He examines the ways in which different kinds of
sublimity reveal freedom and indirectly contribute to morality, and
discusses how Kant's account of natural sublimity suggests that we
have an indirect duty with regard to nature. Unlike many other
studies of these themes, this book examines both the pre-critical
Observations and the remarks that Kant wrote in his copy of the
Observations. Finally, Clewis takes seriously Kant's claim that
enthusiasm is aesthetically sublime, and shows how this clarifies
Kant's views of the French Revolution. His book will appeal to all
who are interested in Kant's philosophy.
