Kant's Critique of Judgement is a philosophical treatise on aesthetics and teleology. It examines judgements of taste, the beautiful and the sublime, and the idea of purpose in nature, linking theoretical and practical philosophy. It is worth listening for its influential account of beauty, taste, and natural purposiveness.
