Judgments of taste based on feeling  are a unique kind of judgment, and the feeling that is their  foundation forms an independent third power of the mind. Feeling has a  special role within this system in that it also provides a transition  between the other two powers of the mind, cognition and desire. \u003cbr\u003e  Matthews argues that feeling, our experience of beauty, provides a  transition because it orients humans in a sensible world. Judgments of  taste help overcome the difficulties that arise when rational  cognitive and moral ends must be pursued in a sensible world. Matthews  demonstrates how feeling, disassociated from rational activities in  Kant's earlier works, is now central in reaching rational ends and  understanding humans as unified rational beings. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAudience:\u003c\/em\u003e This book would be of interest to research libraries  and university libraries, philosophers, historians and aestheticians.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1997-11-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792347644\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-8967-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 243\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45416644903052,"sku":"9780792347644","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792347644.jpg?v=1774026517","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792347644","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
