Manuel García Morente unravels how the German philosopher managed to formulate, for the first time, the problem of aesthetics with total independence from morality or logic. The reader will find an essential guide to understanding the nature of aesthetic judgment, the difference between the beautiful and the sublime, and the role of disinterestedness in artistic experience. A fundamental work for those who wish to delve into the foundations of modern philosophy of art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManuel García Morente analyzes the core of Kantian aesthetic theory, starting from the premise that before Kant, reflection on art and beauty was subordinate to ethical or metaphysical concepts. The book explains how Kant, in his \"Critique of Judgment,\" establishes the autonomy of aesthetic judgment, based on disinterested pleasure and purposiveness without purpose. It addresses the distinction between the beautiful, which pleases universally without a concept, and the sublime, which provokes a complex emotion between pleasure and pain. Through accessible language, the author breaks down the essential Kantian categories for understanding aesthetic experience as a specific human faculty, laying the foundations of modern art and criticism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Topics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe autonomy of aesthetic judgment in relation to morality and logic.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAnalysis of beauty as disinterested and universal pleasure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe concept of the sublime in Kant's philosophy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePurposiveness without purpose as a characteristic of artistic experience.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe Kantian revolution in the history of aesthetic thought.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudents and professionals of philosophy, art history, and aesthetic theory who are looking for a rigorous synthesis of Kant's thought on beauty.
