Summary: | 碩士 === 國立暨南國際大學 === 外國語文學系 === 93 === The task consists of two parts. Part One develops a counter-exposition of Kant’s theory of free play, an exposition from the productive side of beauty rather than the appreciation. This part offers materials from Kant’s theory of art, genius and aesthetic ideas. Part Two focuses on the notion of imagination. From the three different patterns of association of this power (constrained particular associations in cognition, universal associations in theoretical and moral reflections, and aesthetic association in aesthetic reflection) an interrelation among three forms of mental determination (particular determinations, universal determinations and aesthetic determination) that structuralize the schematic form of every instance of consciousness is developed. Furthermore, the communication of aesthetic ideas between a genius and his or her animatee is used to deduce the universality of such a structure consists of three forms of determination, and such communications as commonplace phenomena and the existence of geniuses are used to deduce the existence of the structure. At the end, more comprehensions about consciousness, subjectivity, freedom and humanity are anticipated with the critique of such a structure.
