Thanks a lot, sir, for the explanations. I needed these so badly.

[@sethtichenor]

Thanks Lennyohh. Glad I could help. let me know if there's other videos you'd like to see.

[@LASSEJA1]

Could you do a video on Baumgarten's aesthetics? Would be interesting and helpful. Thanks

[@matthewchoberka5930]

Thanks for these very helpful videos. I did want to ask you to clarify one thing: my reading of the "moments"of quantity and quality had led to me ascribe the notion of judgment free from interest to the first moment, namely of quality; and to then identify the idea of the universal (subjective)-ness of aesthetic judgment with the second moment, of quantity....but you seem to reverse this in your formulation, describing the universality as the moment of quality, and identifying disinterestedness with quantity instead....any thoughts?

Thanks for taking the time to explain a really abstruse text. Much appreciated!

[@fereshtehhabib7798]

It was very good and complete explanation of Kant idea on beauty .Beauty is an item of subjectivity to him, thus he introduces the universal subjectivity that is unanimously believed by the experts.

[@sethtichenor]

I suppose that does sound more Platonic than I intended. I put it this way because I was trying to get across the notion that the determining ground for an aesthetic judgement in any of the moments "can be no other than subjective" to people who aren't necessarily familiar with the philosophical architecture of Kant's critiques. But yes, clearly, "Quality" is the condition for the possibility of a concept & not a concept as such.

[@sethtichenor]

I believe I talk about them in the third video. These were made when there were time limits of 10:00 on the videos, so I had to slice & dice what I said.

[@demifedur]

which video do you talk about disinterestedness and universality?

[@danpdalmonte1092]

Thanks for the lucid explanations!

[@natashaguarda9320]

What about modality?

[@kamiladonald8471]

Seth Tichenor thank you so much I find your tube videos very useful ! I am interested in trying to answer the argument or theory of materiality what its saying about aesthetic beauty and how it relates to materiality. I find this so interesting !

Brilliant exposition

[@malamati007]

Kant seems clearly to be a Platonist, in that he points to the existence of "background concepts" in which beauty, ugliness, sublimity, etc., reside. This is the essence of Kant's unsolved difficulty, in that he hangs his entire structure on "method," which he wants to be strictly based on, and a product of, logical relations--but when he gets to the essentials, he has to appeal to a nonlogical, or pre logical, set of concepts. "Forms forever!" will be the Plutonists' welcoming cry...and "we told you so!" the cry of Heraclitians...

[@apostalote]

I disagree that he can be considered a Platonist, while he may seem to appeal Concepts that are pre-rational and lay beyond the representational, these concepts can only ever be asserted problematically as they refer to a normative structure of nature which is rooted in a noumenal. The essence of Platonism is the assertion that there is some ultimate metaphysical reality that can be known, while for Kant it seems that ultimate reality can only be discussed a problematically. I would agree that Kant is very Aristotelian in the 3rd critique, however.

[@maplestories23]

Quality, Quantity, Relation, Arrive.

[@PowerOfClaw]

Thank you for doing these!

[@exitblur]

This is not entirely comprehensive, in so far as I understand the moments. It neglects the idea of necessity (as exemplary) in the fourth moment; and doesn't really touch upon the ideas of our free play faculties and the common sense by which we are able to ascertain beauty.

[@raginbakin1430]

No, you got it wrong. Universal subjectivity is the second moment. The first moment is about disinterestedness, the third is about purposiveness, and the fourth is about necessity.

[@sethtichenor]

Not in this one. They're in the other videos. Time limits.

[@sethtichenor]

thanks, I appreciate it.

[@MrNickwhy]

Thanks mannn!!!!
