Abstract
The relationship between the two parts of the Third Critique can now be reposed. The Critique of Aesthetic Judgment’s culmination in the symbolic hypotyposis of morality raised a significant connection between the aesthetic of reflective judgment and the typic of practical reason. The Critique of Teleological Judgment can now be seen to have reopened the question of reason’s self-generation in relation to the possibility of cognition of nature. But for the logic of reflective judgment to be articulated in relation to its aesthetic requires the thought of concrete life. Kant’s term for this is: culture.
