Klappentext In this penetrating book, Nuzzo enters new terrain and takes on questions Kant struggled with: How does a body that feels pleasure and pain, desire, anger, and fear understand and experience reason and strive toward knowledge? What grounds the body's experience of art and beauty? What kind of feeling is the feeling of being alive? As she comes to grips with answers, Nuzzo goes beyond Kant to revise our view of embodiment and the essential conditions that make human experience possible. Zusammenfassung Offers a comprehensive reconstruction of Kant's theory of sensibility in his three Critiques. Introducing the notion of "transcendental embodiment!" this book proposes an understanding of Kant's views on science! nature! morality! and art.
