Abstract:

In his Critique of Judgment, Kant relates the communicability of aesthetic feeling to the fact that we are in a position to communicate cognitions. In his references back to the theory of cognition in the first Critique, however, Kant alters the original direction of proof and attributes a new role to some of his most important theorems, e.g. to his claims about synthesis and its foundational function for composition and relation. In this paper, I will reconstruct and defend Kant’s views on communicability and the changes associated with it. In a final section, I will argue that the concept of communicability should not be identified with the concept of subjective universal validity. Subjective universal validity is merely a special case of the former.
