Table of ContentsTRANSLATOR'S INTRODUCTION NOTE ON THE TRANSLATION OBSERVATIONS ON THE FEELING OF THE BEAUTIFUL AND SUBLIME SECTION ONE: Of the Distinct Objects of the Feeling of the Beautiful and Sublime SECTION Two: Of the Attributes of the Beautiful and Sublime in Man in General SECTION THREE : Of the Distinction of the Beautiful and Sublime in the Interrelations of the Two Sexes SECTION FOUR: Of National Characteristics, so far as They Depend upon the Distinct Feeling of the Beautiful and Sublime TRANSLATOR'S NOTESReviewsThis early aesthetic work of Kant. . . is clearly and simply written and shows a deep understanding of human nature. What emerges from its pages is that far from being a dry-as-dust pedant, Kant was a man of warmth, feeling, and humor, who possessed an acute sensitivity for the different shades of aesthetic experience. . . . The Observations contains a comprehensive introduction by the translator, as well as notes by him. If it is not the omega of Kant's aesthetic theory, it is certainly the alpha. --W.
