Allison. * Offers twenty-six further-reading sections, commenting briefly on books and articles from the English, German, and French, that are relevant for each topic * Provides an extensive bibliography and a chapter summarizing Kant's main points.
Rezensionen
"As an overall assessment, then, this is undoubtedly one of the most interesting and meticulous "guides" to Kant's aesthetic theory. Even though Wenzel clearly adopts a slightly different approach to Kant's aesthetic theory than this reviewer, this book is probably the best introductory volume currently available."
"In sum, I highly recommend this book to students and scholars with some familiarity with Kant and the "Critique of Aesthetic Judgment." This book will surely deepen their understanding of Kant."
"Wenzel's book is an invaluable aid for all serious students of Kant's third Critique. The reconstruction of arguments is clear and concise; the annotated bibliography is remarkably knowledgeable and helpful."
"This volume will be indispensable to any new reader of Kant's third Critique who seeks illumination of its key concepts, insights into its philosophical context, and guidance for further study."
