Abstract
In two points at least, Kant's Critique of Aesthetic Judgment can be read as an answer to Hume's essay Of the Standard of Taste.' First, can there be a standard of taste-as Hume affirms and Kant denies? Second, do judgments of taste ascribe to their object objective value, as Kant contends, or subjective value, as Hume seems to hold? I shall deal with these questions in turn. And I shall finish with a third part that tries to sketch Kant's theory of objective aesthetic value.
