Konstantin Pollok offers the first book-length analysis of Kant's
theory of normativity that covers foundational issues in
theoretical and practical philosophy as well as aesthetics.
Interpreting Kant's 'critical turn' as a normative turn, he argues
that Kant's theory of normativity is both original and radical: it
departs from the perfectionist ideal of early modern rationalism,
and arrives at an unprecedented framework of synthetic a priori
principles that determine the validity of our judgments. Pollok
examines the hylomorphism in Kant's theory of normativity and
relates Kant's idea of our reason's self-legislation to the
'natural right' tradition, revealing Kant's debt to his
predecessors as well as his relevance to contemporary debates on
normativity. This book will appeal to academic researchers and
advanced students of Kant, early modern philosophy and intellectual
history.
For philosophers of German idealism and early German romanticism,
the imagination is central to issues ranging from hermeneutics to
transcendental logic and from ethics to aesthetics. This volume of
new essays brings together, for the first time, comprehensive and
critical reflections on the significances of the imagination during
this period, with essays on Kant and the imagination, the
imagination in post-Kantian German idealism, and the imagination in
early German romanticism. The essays explore the many and varied
uses of the imagination and discuss whether they form a coherent or
shared notion or whether they embody points of philosophical
divergence within these traditions. They shed new light on one of
the most important and enigmatic aspects of human nature, as
understood in the context of a profoundly influential era of
western thought.
