When writing your Analyses, you should keep in mind that the goal is typically not to guess whether thephilosopher in question would have liked the work of art you’re analyzing. Rather than beginning yourAnalysis from the work of art itself (“now that I’ve seen this play, what would Nietzsche say about it?”),you should consider beginning your thinking about the work by thinking about the philosophicalperspective from which you will be conducting the Analysis. What, according to this thinker, are thecrucial concepts, terms, traits, elements, ideas, practices, etc. when it comes to works of art and/oraesthetic phenomena? Benjamin and Heidegger have very different vocabularies for discussing art, butthey also conceive of art in very different ways. They might not be able to agree on which phenomena areworks of art and which are “mere things.” Starting with the work of art might prejudice your Analysisagainst the possibility that the thinker in question would not recognize that work of art as a work of art.Starting with the philosophical perspective, on the other hand, might open you to seeing works of art inways you had never previously considered.Thus, in short, instead of going to the museum to observe a painting for your Kant Art Analysis, Irecommend wandering through the museum with Kant on your mind, and letting the works that seemespecially interesting from a Kantian perspective “jump out at you.” This probably means observing agreat deal more art than you will actually write about in your papers. But that’s not such a terrible thing.Immanuel Kant, The Critique of JudgementPlease choose a movie and analyse that movie base on: Immanuel Kant, The Critique of Judgement
