 Final meeting on Kant's Critique of the Power of Judgment

Our final meeting of the academic year will take place on Wed 31 May at 5pm.

 Kant's Critique of the Power of Judgement

We will next read the "First Introduction" (Guyer and Matthews) pp. 1–51 (the German is available in many places, including Weischedel vol. V and online)

For Wed 10 May 5pm, we will read up to the end of section VIII (so up to p. 28 in Guyer and Matthews). 

 

 

Kant's Critique of the Power of Judgment

Date of next meeting: Wed 26 April at 5pm (zoom).
