Kant's philosophy - Can there be dispute about taste?

from Kant's Philosophy · host The Voice of Reason

Dē gustibus nōn est disputandum - There can be no disputes on taste, is an old principle that still many adhere to. Kant deals with it in the dialectic of the aesthetical power of judgment. For like in the Critique of Pure Reason and in the Critique of Practical Reason in the Critique of the Power of Judgment he finds an antinomy in our thinking faculty, an opposition between two seemingly equally true statements, which still seem to exclude one another. And like in the other two Critiques this antinomy is of central importance, for it elevates us to the idea of the supersensual and proves that transcendental idealism is the only possible system.Quote: 0:08Dialectic: 1:05The dialectic of the aesthetical power of judgment: 4:36Solution to the antinomies: 14:19The connection between beauty and morality: 28:59The significance of the dialectic of the aesthetical power of judgment: 38:06Thanks: 45:44The question whether one can dispute on matters of taste is the topic of the dialectic of the aesthetical power of judgment in the Critique of the Power of Judgment: https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/48433/pg48433-images.htmlWhoever wants to support my aufkläring work can do so via:https://ko-fi.com/jonathanivoloewerhttps://www.patreon.com/jonathanivoloewerhttps://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=VDDT7T7XHR77UThumbnail: www.hotpot.ai
