康德先验美学方法论

Kant's Transcendental Aesthetic Methodology

康德美学的先验方法论原则,一方面应用“反思判断力”去超越美本体从而对本质主义美学进行颠覆,用“先验原理”去为情感寻求必然性从而对心理学美学进行重构;另一方面又应用知性直观去连接先验反思判断力和经验感性表象以求得对审美的正确解释。先验方法论在美学应用中体现的两条最根本的原则——先验反思和知性直观,是理解康德美学两套话语系统的关键所在。

The principle of transcendental method describes Kant＇s aesthetics of seeking the conditions of the possibility of our knowledge of the world and recognizes that there are things that transcend the limits of our cognitive faculties. Kant argues that sensibility is the understanding＇s means of accessing objects. The empiricist might object at this point by insisting that such concepts do arise from experience, raising questions about Kant＇s claim that the mind brings an a priori conceptual structure to the world.
