Simple Philosophy
In the second live stream we discuss Immanuel Kant’s ethics, aesthetics, and the sublime.
The concepts are broken down into the following sections:
0:31 – Kantian Ethics (Deontology vs Consequentialism)
3:31 – Categorical Imperative (Axe man scenario)
10:08 – Aesthetics (includes discussion of Todd Philips’ Joker film)
15:13 – The Sublime
20:05 – Criticisms (Kant as a racist)
Do you agree with Kant’s view of ethics? Are there universal principles? Can we judge a work of art as purposeful vs purposefulness? Let me know in the comments!
