Kant's Solution to the Trilemma of Concept Formation

European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract According to a widespread assumption, Kant's logical account of concept formation starts with comparison, where the latter involves concepts.

The Appreciation Game. A Monist Ontology of Works of Art

European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract A pluralist ontology of art states that works of art can belong to distinct ontological categories whereas a monist ontology states that all works of art belong to one ontological category. A monist ontology would be preferable since it is more informative about the nature of art, and may pave the way for a definition of art.
