Reflective judgment as world disclosure

María Pía Lara

U AM-I, Mexico

In this article I deal with Kant's concept of reflective judgment, and recover it through its links to the aesthetic dimension as its fundamental scenario. Then I go on to explain why Hannah Arendt understood this important Kantian connection, and why she thought it would allow her to develop it through a political dimension. Last, having reviewed both Kant and Arendt's contributions to the concept of reflective judgment, I recover my own input to the concept by showing its linguistic dimension based on the Heideggerian notion of world-disclosure. With this in mind, I show how the concept of reflective judgment is the most suitable to analyze evil actions.

Key Words: aesthetic experience • aesthetic perception • aesthetic realm • determinant • imagination • the ineffable • judgment • reflective judgment • schematizing • sensus communis • world-disclosure
