Abstract :This article offers an account of Jacques Derrida’s reading of Kant’s Critique of Judgement, drawing out its implication for an understanding of the signifcance of aesthetic judgement in Kant, and in general. It argues that strictures identifed by Derrida, concerning aesthetics and judgment, the role of analogy, instability in diferentiations of beauty and the sublime, in ideas of the parergon and problematics of the sensus communis, are interrelated. It indicates how such problematics recurred in Clement Greenberg’s Modernist accounts of painting, echoing displaced reiterations of aesthetic criteria in Kant’s articulation of the sensus communis and in analogical argumentation, concerning the theorisation of art, and judgements of beauty and the sublime. The article concludes by showing how readings of the sublime, by Jean-Luc Nancy, Jean-François Lyotard and Jacques Rancière, and the beautiful, by Paul Guyer, fail to allow for the productive plurality of responses that Derrida’s reading suggests.
