Judgment and Aesthetics: Hannah Arendt on Kant

Everyone is welcome to this reading group on Hannah Arendt’s Lectures on Kant’s Political Philosophy. We’ll spend the first two sessions discussing Arendt’s reading of Kant’s account of aesthetic judgment. Then we’ll devote the final session to recent critical efforts to extend Arendt’s thinking on judgment to contemporary problems in aesthetics and political theory. The group should be of interest to anyone interested in debates about aesthetic education, criticism, and judgment and evaluation in the humanities.

Sorry, there are currently no talks scheduled in this series.
