"الفن الجميل بما هو فن العبقرية" عند كانط

Abstract EN

In this article, I try to discuss the concept of genius from Kant's point of view through his book Critic of the Talent of Judgment.

Genius is related to the self that is not governed by specific rules, considering that genius is mainly related to talent, so genius is an expression of beautiful art, as Kant distinguishes mechanical art from the beautiful mouth, And how the original artist cannot be a follower of another artist, just as he cannot create a work of art similar to a previous one, given that art is against dependency, as art, even if it is studied in schools, retains in an important aspect of it genius and talent, and thus the aesthetic perception Kant is the result of the path of modernity in establishing the free individual who is not subject to imperatives.

Thus, genius is manifested in artistic work, and not in scientific work, because the former is not subject to prior planning by its producer, and it is not subject to general rules and the purpose of this research is basically to make the reader understand why Aesthetics as a study did not appear until the 18th century with modernity, and how it did not appear before.
