Constantin Noica și deschiderile „Criticii facultății de judecare”

In this paper, I analyse Constantin Noica’s interpretation of Immanuel Kant’s „Critique of the Power of Judgment”, as presented in „Two Introductions and a Passage to Idealism”. My aim is to highlight a particular opening of Kant’s aesthetics that Noica identifies but does not develop further in his later philosophy. To this end, the paper is structured as follows: first, I review the current scholarship on Noica’s Two Introductions and a Passage to Idealism. Second, I discuss the method Noica employs in this work and outline the main points of his argument. Finally, I address some ambiguities that appear at the end of his interpretation and briefly discuss the opening in Kant’s aesthetics that Noica notices but does not explore it further in his later philosophy.
