Art and Ethics in a Material World: Kant’s Pragmatist Legacy (Routledge Studies in Ethics and Moral Theory)

Jennifer A. McMahon

4.9/5 (22824 ratings)

Description:In this book, McMahon argues that a reading of Kant s body of work in the light of a pragmatist theory of meaning and language (which arguably is a Kantian legacy) leads one to put community reception ahead of individual reception in the order of aesthetic relations. A core premise of the book is that neo-pragmatism draws attention to an otherwise overlooked aspect of Kant s "Critique of Aesthetic Judgment," and this is the conception of community which it sets forth.While offering an interpretation of Kant s aesthetic theory, the book focuses on the implications of Kant s third critique for contemporary art. McMahon draws upon Kant and his legacy in pragmatist theories of meaning and language to argue that aesthetic judgment is a version of moral judgment: a way to cultivate attitudes conducive to community, which plays a pivotal role in the evolution of language, meaning, and knowledge.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
