In this book, Jeanine Grenberg argues that everything important about Kant's moral philosophy emerges from careful reflection upon the common human moral experience of the conflict between happiness ...and morality. Through careful readings of both the Groundwork and the Critique of Practical Reason, Grenberg shows that Kant, typically thought to be an overly technical moral philosopher, in fact is a vigorous defender of the common person's first-personal encounter with moral demands. Grenberg uncovers a notion of phenomenological experience in Kant's account of the Fact of Reason, develops a new a reading of the Fact, and grants a moral epistemic role for feeling in grounding Kant's a priori morality. The book thus challenges readings which attribute only a motivational role to feeling; and Fichtean readings which violate Kant's commitments to the limits of reason. This study will be valuable to students and scholars engaged in Kant studies.
Angelica Nuzzo offers a comprehensive reconstruction of Kant's theory of
sensibility in his three Critiques. By introducing the notion of transcendental
embodiment, Nuzzo proposes a new understanding ...of Kant's views on science, nature,
morality, and art. She shows that the issue of human embodiment is coherently
addressed and key to comprehending vexing issues in Kant's work as a whole. In this
penetrating book, Nuzzo enters new terrain and takes on questions Kant struggled
with: How does a body that feels pleasure and pain, desire, anger, and fear
understand and experience reason and strive toward knowledge? What grounds the
body's experience of art and beauty? What kind of feeling is the feeling of being
alive? As she comes to grips with answers, Nuzzo goes beyond Kant to revise our view
of embodiment and the essential conditions that make human experience
possible.

With particular focus on imagination, Bernard Freydberg presents a close reading of Kant's second critique, The Critique of Practical Reason. In an interpretation that is daring as well as rigorous, ...Freydberg reveals imagination as both its central force and the bridge that links Kant's three critiques. Freydberg's reading offers a powerful challenge to the widespread view that Kant's ethics calls for rigid, self-denying obedience. Here, to the contrary, the search for self-fulfillment becomes an enormously creative endeavor once imagination is understood as the heart of Kantian ethics. Seasoned scholars and newer students will find a surprising and provocative view of Kant's ethics in this straightforward and accessible book.
