First Introduction To The Critique Of Judgment by Immanuel Kant

This preliminary exposition develops the concept of reflective judgment as the faculty that mediates between understanding and reason by adopting the purposiveness of nature as a merely regulative principle. It explains how judgments of beauty claim a universal communicability of feeling without determinate concepts, and how teleological reflection views organisms as if ordered to ends, while denying constitutive knowledge of supersensible causes. By distinguishing determinative from reflective judgment and arguing for the necessity of systematic unity in scientific inquiry, it prepares the ground for a critique of aesthetic and teleological judgment that seeks to reconcile nature and freedom within a single critical framework.
