An Overview of Kant & Beauty

[@edmundhusserl9071]

1:02 The image used here (and in the thumbnail of the video) as the portrait Kant is in fact not a portrait of Kant, but of Friedrich Heinrich Jacobi.

[@LadyLazarus1027]

honestly, when eventually I become a philosophy teacher, I wanna be just like you. to talk about these complex matters in such an inspirational way that makes everything so interesting!! thank you for this.

[@remotefaith]

Tone down the extreme hamminess when it's your turn.

[@kennylow4334]

Remarkable video! I can feel your enthusiasm for the subject. Incredible discussion on intellectual ideas concerning beauty and the sublime that stirred my interest to read a little more into Philosophy and the Art. Wonderful, thank you so much for creating the content :)

[@ipektashkin8607]

thank you for explaining Kant better than the article I was reading!! I learned so much from this video!!

[@ikramhereandnow1546]

I highly appreaciate this work and huge ammount of knowledge. thank you. I am looking forward to further videos alike. Best of luck

[@surivicky]

Your expressions and way of speaking and explaining is in itself example of beauty.

[@vf00]

But because her expressions and way of speaking are beautiful in an explanatory sense, there is a purpose to the beauty, which does not engage an aesthetic response per Kant.

[@Shemdoupe]

Phenomenal summary and video on Kant's critique of aesthetic judgement. Thanks so much for this. I just got about half way through and you really put a nice bow around his ideas.

[@squeakytoyrecords1702]

This video is beautfiul... Your passion and grasp of beauty, moved me deeply. Beauty is the first principal of life, it could not be any other way. Thank you for your service.

[@martajesus3671]

this video literally saved me for a paperwork, thank you for your passion in this subject and also for explaining it so freaking good!!! Keep going :)

[@RamloghunLuv]

Is this strange that am reading Kant's book out of pleasure ?

[@yasmine4074]

Oh I wish you were my art & philosophy teacher! I appreciate your enthusiasm

[@taryn.gesmundo]

I love your expansion on Kant's notion of disinterested pleasure; your examples really elucidated it for me so thank you for sharing!

[@WoodlandPoetry]

I am torn by the idea of art having to be without any utilitarian function. It raises man above and out of himself. If that isn't providing a service, I don't know what is. Thank you for this wonderful video!

[@SalvableRuin]

Why do you think art has no utility? Beauty in all forms has utility. Beauty calms and centres the mind and spirit. Beauty inspires and arouses. Beauty motivates us and gives life pleasure and meaning. Beauty drives procreation, love, creation, architecture, advancement, and uncountable other things. We aren't insensible machines.

[@WoodlandPoetry]

@@SalvableRuin That's exactly what I was saying. Maybe you should read my comment again. Art, by it's very nature, provides a service. All art is utilitarian in the sense that it provides a service to our souls and nourishes our spirits. Beauty uplifts people, and that, to me, is extremely useful.

[@anthonypratt2044]

You could also argue that it has pharmaceutical benefits for the mind.

[@bhones459]

Great video, one can clearly see your passion for the subject. You explained everything in a superb way. Thanks!

[@emmapablo7321]

understanding this will make you understand the role of science and the role of religion ie. Christianity. one deals with external and physical forms and utility and the other deals with sublime which naturally make no sense to the physical world... they all have important roles to play in the beauty of mankind.... thanks for this video

[@ara826]

This is such a nice video. It helped me explain points even better while writing my paper. Thanks a lot!

[@simonyann699]

Thanks for your sharing the theory of Kant in an easy way, It helps me comprehend the complex concept and feel the rhythm of his wisdom. Something beyond the language emerging from my brain although I'm just learning English, it's amazing.感谢！❤

[@christysmith5211]

This women is incredible!! I don’t know how found this channel. But I realize I love art. What a amazing passion she has and I have learned so much as I have binged watched.

[@PeebeesPet]

I know it’s hard to imagine but women like men also have names. They’re not called the woman.

[@unknowntexan4570]

The best explanation of Kant's ideas about beauty ever!

[@RamloghunLuv]

I love reading philosophy becomes it's a mental stimulation for me and it gives my life a wider meaning. My curiosity for depth in life is somehow satisfied with it.

[@andreafisherwriter]

I love your passion for these subjects. I'm studying philosophy and am excited about these ideas too. Thank you for sharing on beauty with great beauty!

[@jimconradcomille8152]

Kant's thoughts are deeply interesting.❤️ Thank u for sharing your thoughts and making this insight relevant for me. it's really something worth treasuring. I wrote my paper clearly because of this!! Thank u❤️

[@timdanyo898]

The conversations around beauty are so important. Thank you.

[@davidweber1868]

Kant doesn't think you can only act morally when you're not already inclined to do the right thing independently of morality; it's just that it's easier to be sure you're acting morally when you're not already inclined to do the right thing. Similarly, he doesn't think beauty is incompatible with utility, that "there's a line in the sand" between things that have aesthetic value and things that have utility value; it's just easier to isolate aesthetic value in cases where there's no utility value to confuse the issue. (I'm quibbling with what comes at around 15:30 and following; I don't think Kant needs correction on this point. --I could be wrong.)

[@johnpress]

I really love how you personalize aesthetic theory. Thank you!

[@lurany6171]

incredible video! always a gift to learn from someone so passionate

[@karluhcrooz]

the slight bash on fanny packs LOL LOVED this video btw tysm

[@urvashi9610]

thank you for the lecture it was really well explained and fun to watch.

[@clareblatchford-hanna4265]

I heard someone else mention the importance of distance or rather proximity, when experiencing beauty, and the way you feel this kind of aura (I think it was Dr Ellie on the Overthink Podcast),

[@stevechmilar1215]

Thank you for making this video.

[@josephrichards7624]

Only 5 minutes in but such a great video, the pace of it was perfect for a guy like me, great job. Do you have videos or could you make some more on objectivity in art? It seems to me like it is the biggest question to art philosophy. Thanks in advance and thanks again for the video

[@fabiesebastian]

Your explanation so sublime...... brava!!!!

[@johncoffman1841]

I certainly loved kantemplating this video. Thank you. It is sublime.

[@jared3370]

I love your passion. You also relate these complex ideas in a very comprehensible manner too.

[@jared3370]

Ok I just finished the entire video and WOW....I absolutely adore the way in which you conveyed these ideas. You actually inspired me and gave me a deeper appreciation for the study if philosophy, which for me personally, is what I consider to be a source of profound beauty in my life

[@pamgyang803]

Interesting! Thank you! You did a great job explaining this!

[@taalatchouf5427]

For my art assignment hehe... Thanks for the video!

[@r0bt93]

Love this and your enthusiasm, you're great to listen to! May I recommend a better microphone and background that's not got crushed whites though?

[@aliyahfarooqi4119]

This vid is a gem

[@jessica5497]

You're fantastic! Subscribed. 💜

[@artofmusic303]

I use the word “beauty” only for art. I associate "beauty" with all those things Kant includes in his definition (order, harmony, dignity, ethics, uplifts society, etc.) but I don't completely disassociate beauty from sensual pleasure. For me, sensual pleasure is also there in visual arts (for example, color) and in music (for example, consonance vs dissonance). Beauty is both rational and sensual. On the other hand, I use the word "sublime" only to describe nature, not art. The natural world is truly overwhelming and infinitely large, complex and powerful. The feeling we get in the presence of this vast universe is sublimity.

[@sargisbotsinyan4187]

Thank you so much! I have an oral exam (presentation) and I live in Germany! Your video was the best one I could find! Do you know about the aesthetics of Schiller?

[@francisb.bilaro2991]

Thank you for this very substantial video. I may suggest that you may also make a video about Hegel's notion on Art. Thanks, from Philippines!

[@bg.2559]

Kant says that beauty is simultaneously subjective and universal. How is the reconciliation possible?

[@ceciliacruzdealmeida1989]

Great video! Thank you dor sharing

[@thegamersarena6653]

Phenomenal summary Thank you for creating the content.

[@skywhilds]

🙏💖🙏GREAT VIDEO. Only one important, imo, point: less stammering. Less fillers. I think you can maintain your AWESOME EXUBERANCE, without the halting language by doing a lot of spontaneous journaling. Ever tried it? Just write whatever comes to mind, without stopping. Or type. It will prime the pump and grease the wheels. This practice will make your words flow more smoothly. Works for me, anyway.🙏💖🙏

[@magrayfayaz1478]

Thanks maam ..great ..plz make other one about hegal

[@skywhilds]

HEGEL NOT "hegal"!!!!!!!!! :D

[@Shiiv4m]

Such a powerful mic you are using.

[@ramdobe9276]

Wonderful video opened my eyes thanks 😊

[@DJSTOEK]

🖤

[@ZzaChristian]

Damn this was great! Amazing content, thanks.

[@s000hjg]

I LOOOOVE YOUR EXCITEMENT

[@SolveWithAyurveda]

Thank you Ma'am for explain it in a easy way.♥️

[@Andrew-bk3fb]

Good video, nice work

[@samuelo.c.4813]

Thank you for this amazing summary

[@GV_777YT]

I got the same computer as you. Its beautifully designed and it also works very well. i think thats what differentiated apple from any other computer company.

[@plamenenew]

But the flower, the painting does have a purpose and a function. Without it, without its beauty, who would want to live in such world? It's what drives us to progress and evolve, growing to higher dimensions continuing on this never ending journey!

[@hello2424ification]

great lecture thank you!

[@ranjeetsingh7337]

Beautifully explained....being a philosophy scholar i never thought to take Kant's aesthetics in Kierkegaardian teleological suspension but with your depth explanation I will take this idea for my further research... thank you ma'am

[@BrittneyStyleTheory]

What would Kant think of the colloquial use of the word "aesthetic?". I don't know him well enough to make a good guess. Thanks. :)

[@renatamare3330]

Sublime!!

[@-vz-]

amazing video! thanks!

[@paperbloom763]

Do German Romanticism or Romanticism in general takes the concept of sublime from Kant ?

[@talhashafiq937]

Amazing video

[@djangounchained-w3s]

this is very good

[@EzMoney23x]

I just want to say you have a winning personality

[@amennamjo168]

Kant created one of the most incomprehensible concepts of philosophy. You have to be a wise person to understand. In Critique of Pure Reason, Kant says that this book cannot be understood by the public

[@ricoolores7197]

Who is this woman? I want to listen and know more. Can anybody tell me her name?

[@skywhilds]

TESSA DAVIDSON

[@joelwertzberger11219]

How can you call a flower disinterested pleasure when it's there to attract bees and birds to spread pollen

[@fahadhussain1946]

Great❤

[@ubet6691]

There’s utility in any experience. Beauty is a drive.

[@aravindsundar6457]

It's been a great help

[@rachitaurora]

Thank you!

[@Setherian]

Beauty is only relevant if one can see it where hardly anyone else could and adequately transmit that finding. Glorifying beauty without making that notion extremely evident can have disastrous effects.

[@P.Aether]

Why is no one in the comments trying to have a diacussion on the subject? Its like a legion of bots congratulating about how great the video and you are lol...

[@6DAMMK9]

Oh, AI art just popued out recently, and... I'm watching this video as a AI hobbist, involved into kinds of drama about profits (functions) / intergrity (utility), and trying to snap out myself if AI can bring us some idea about art (of statistic?) out from nature (randomness, although technically "pseudo"), from somewhere no one cares about at this moment.

[@MegaPetchi]

When Americans understand what is beauty, they become so ecstatic :-))

[@vipersuphere]

Might help to give your definition because of what you just uttered.

[@SuperMasterfatman]

Based on her understanding of aesthetics and Kant, I think she can be categorized as the perfect neoliberal subject.

[@maxlewis1001]

Explain. I thought neoliberals were against beauty for beauties sake.

[@anshulmaheshwari2555]

thanks to tell me how to see the world . i like to read psychology but cant get it

[@Shiiv4m]

Awesome content ❤️

[@vishakha_zz]

Wowww!

[@M.O.1981]

Thank you.

[@SalvableRuin]

Beauty is not a loaded term. Beauty is a pure and simple. People's inability to perceive that pure, essential reality make it appear loaded. That's just what I think. But it does appear to be both objective and subjective, that we can agree on.

[@ashwinisingh6888]

Thank you ❤❤❤❤

[@Artsmadann]

I think you should have quoted Roger Scruton.. at least mention his name

[@WoodlandPoetry]

May I ask why? Is it because he references Kant? Personally I think Kant stands alone.

[@wisedomseeker5002]

My eyes just glued from the moment to the end. It's Sublime❤

[@danielkarpan4832]

Thumbnail is Jacobi, not Kant

[@skywhilds]

Prove it. Looks like Kant. Doesn't look like the images of Jacobi on google, @ all.

[@MikeBritten-cp9vp]

Do any animals appreciate beauty?

[@HFH-lt2xi]

Disinterested beauty's the highest form - yet hardest to reach. The 7 sins're countering.

[@jrshipley]

An argument that X is instrumentally valuable need not imply that X is not also intrinsically valuable.

[@mansoor7571]

This is where it becomes a mistake when science tries to calculate philosophical analogy

[@giiibbzoffizix]

very concise .

[@rambomambo]

oh wow, you are good

[@jakubhorehaj1542]

The guy in the thumbnail is not Kant. That s Friedrich Jacobi.

[@skywhilds]

Prove it. Looks like Kant. Doesn't look like the images of Jacobi on google, @ all.

[@dailinli653]

cool vid but why were you talking about whales

[@anastasiosanastasiou7497]

Does Kant believe that beauty is subjective or objective?

[@MrGoranPa]

I don't agree with Kant on beauty as disinteresting quality. It took me long to be brave enough to challenge classic philosophers.

[@Mina33-n4k]

Thanks❤️

[@georgejones176]

the guy in the thumbnail isn't Kant

[@pr0fsnip3r86]

is that you, my dude?

[@skywhilds]

Sure looks like him. Prove that he isn't.

[@withnail-and-i]

This ain't even Kant on the thumbnail 😂

[@betterfunliving7772]

So, when i am aroused by booty then i am experiencing the sublime? 🤔

[@7070Claudia]

Beautiful
