Description:

These essays on the nature of judgement are drawn from themes in Kant's "Critique of Judgement" and Hannah Arendt's discussion of judgement from "Lectures on Kant's Philosophy". Amongst other things they deal with the role of imagination in judgement and judgement as a distinct human faculty.

Synopsis:

Judgment, Imagination, and Politics brings together for the first time leading essays on the nature of judgment. Drawing from themes in Kant's Critique of Judgment and Hannah Arendt's discussion of judgment from Lectures on Kant's Political Philosophy, these essays deal with: the role of imagination in judgment; judgment as a distinct human faculty; the nature of judgment in law and politics; and the many puzzles that arise from the 'enlarged mentality,' the capacity to consider the perspectives of others that aren't in Kant treated as essential to judgment.
