Fedwa gave 4 stars to Analytique du beau: Critique de la faculte de juger (Paperback) by Immanuel Kant
This was not an easy read from the get go, but it was an incredibly rewarding experience. This happens to be my first time reading Kant directly and I would say having some general notions about his philosophy helps you understand his ideas on Beauty better. As someone here stated, Kant does repeat himself quite a bit. So the reader should just keep reading until concepts, through repetition, become much more clear. I believe the structure of the book, the repetitions and the use of synonyms, is all in the service of making us understand Kant's argument more deeply. It's a slow read but a truly marvelous one, it is personally my gateway into reading more about aesthetics. If this subject interests you, I hope you take the time to get into it and enjoy it as much as I did. You will not regret it.
