Research On Kant's Natural Aesthetics

As the founder of German classical philosophy,The philosophical system Kant has established is grand and profound.From "What can we know?" to "What should we do?" and finally to "What can we hope for?" a series of those questions covers almost all thinking about the existence of mankind in his criticism.And Kant's thinking of "nature" and "freedom" runs through it in the exploration of these issues.Kant's exploration of nature and natural aesthetics is not accomplished in an action.Rather,it draws lessons and innovations on the basis of predecessors' thinking.He finally put forward his own unique viewpoints and has had a profound influence on later generations.To grasp the whole philosophical system of Kant macroscopically,we must understand the role played by "nature" in it and the transitional role of "beauty" between "nature" and "freedom".Taking "beauty of natural" as the starting point,this article runs through several major questions that Kant criticized,and takes a look at the role that nature plays in nature epistemology,ontology and teleology and at all levels,how does "beauty" be discussed? In the analysis of the three levels and their relationships,we should to clear that Kant's aesthetics about nature was not a part that was independently developed from the beginning,but was “forced” by his thinking about philosophy.Kant's division of nature's duality brings a "fault of natural",but two aspects point to the same natural,so the two can be connected together.As the ability Kant finds to communicate and unify two aspects,"beauty" not only can be close to "natural",but it can also be connected to "freedom." The reason why “beauty” can play a role in communication is that Kant has made an analogy between nature and human art.Through the discovery of the similarity of “natural beauty” and “art beauty”,the natural beauty and natural purpose are connected.Ultimately,nature and freedom are connected.In connection with the reality,from the theories of Kant's "natural" and "beauty of natural ",we can relate to the environmental problems that are urgently needed to be solved now.Faced with some difficult problems in the development of environmental aesthetics today,in his thinking on the relationship between "man" and "nature",Kant has already pointed out to us how to appreciate nature and how to get along with nature: The purpose of nature is not given by people,however,it points people's freedom and morality ultimately.Nature can not be separated from people and it can be no "self-discipline".In the face of nature,people are not absolute power but interdependence with nature,and they restrict each other.This is an important significance for the development of contemporary environmental aesthetics.
