【图书简介】 In this book Jane Kneller focuses on the role of imagination as a creative power in Kant’s aesthetics and in his overall philosophical enterprise. She analyzes Kant's account of imaginative freedom and the relation between imaginative free play and human social and moral development， showing various ways in which his aesthetics of disinterested reflection produce moral interests. She situates these aspects of his aesthetic theory within the context of German aesthetics of the eighteenth century， arguing that Kant’s contribution is a bridge between early theories of aesthetic moral education and the early Romanticism of the last decade of that century. In so doing， her book brings the two most important German philosophers of Enlightenment and Romanticism， Kant and Novalis， into dialogue. It will be of interest to a wide range of readers in both Kant studies and German philosophy of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Jane Kneller is a knowledgeable and perceptive scholar both of Kant and of early German Romanticism.With its emphasis on Kant's account of the imagination and its insight into the continuity of German Romantic thought with the philosophy that preceded it，Kant and the Power of Imagination will change our understanding of both.-读书网|DuShu.com
