  • Guyer's interpretation of free harmony in Kant [Elektronski vir]
    Küplen, Mojca
    Kant’s task in the Critique of the Power of Judgment was to give an account of how genuine judgments of taste, that is, judgments about the beautiful (and the ugly), are possible. His objective was ... to resolve an apparent contradiction between two characteristics pertaining to judgments of taste, that is, its subjectivity and universality. However, some interpreters have pointed out that Kant’s resolution seems to be incompatible with his own epistemological views. Accordingly, Paul Guyer has recently defended a ‘metacognitive’ reading of Kant’s claims. My aim in this paper is to examine and reevaluate Guyer’s interpretative suggestion, and to point out the main difficulties with his approach. I will argue that his reading does not offer a full and satisfactory account of Kant’s aesthetics, because it cannot accommodate three of Kant’s core commitments.
