597Practical schematism, teleology and the unity of the metaphysics of moralsIn Kyriaki Goudeli, Pavlos Kontos & Iolis Patellis (eds.), Kant: Making Reason Intuitive, Palgrave-macmillan. 2007.In this piece I address the question of how the two parts of the *Metaphysics of Morals* are to be related to each other through invocation of the notion of practical schematism. In the process I argue that understanding the notion of moral teleology will help us address the relationship between Kant's principles of right, virtue and the categorical imperative.

90Mapplethorpe, Duchamp and the Ends of PhotographyAngelaki 7 (1): 119-128. 2002.This paper presents an argument for seeing Marcel Duchamp and Robert Mapplethorpe as opposite ends of a tradition of negotiation of art with its conditions of production. The piece takes seriously Kant's suggestions concerning the fine arts and contests views of art that see the Kantian tradition as formally fixed.

84Kant's transcendental imaginationPalgrave-Macmillan. 2005.The role and place of transcendental psychology in Kant's Critique of Pure Reason has been a source of some contention. This work presents a detailed argument for restoring transcendental psychology to a central place in the interpretation of Kant's Analytic, in the process providing a detailed response to more "austere" analytic readings.

65Husserl and the logic of experience (edited book)Palgrave-Macmillan. 2005.Husserl and the Logic of Experience includes both detailed work on particular aspects of logical theory (such as an inquiry into the status of the principle of excluded middle) and also detailed investigations into the nature of the logic of temporal conceptions. Demonstrating the cultural import of Husserl's work while also showing its continuing significance for logical theory, this collection is a milestone in the study of transcendental phenomenology.

56The continental tradition: Kant, Hegel, NietzscheIn John Mullarkey & Beth Lord (eds.), The Continuum Companion to Continental Philosophy, Continuum. 2009.This paper addresses the question about the understanding of the history of continental philosophy by tracing a tradition in which this philosophy figures itself in relation to futurity. This is considered in relation to the distinct ways in which futurity is a question for Kant, Hegel and Nietzsche.

56Publicity and provisional rightPolitics and Ethics Review 3 (1): 73-89. 2007.This piece presents an account of Kant's notion of provisional right and connects this conception to his defence of two principles of publicity. The argument is to the effect that understanding the notion of provisional right will enable us to comprehend the Kantian picture of the state of nature, the basis of the transition from such a state to the civil condition and also his treatment of international right. The paper also presents the sketch of a Kantian theory of normatively justified insti…Read more

52Touching the Opening of the WorldDerrida Today 6 (1): 58-77. 2013.In this article I seek to address the way that Jean-Luc Nancy's project of the ‘deconstruction of Christianity’ relates to the understanding of what might be meant by ‘Christian art’. In the process of looking at Nancy's treatment of some signal ‘Christian’ scenes I describe some ways in which the motif of ‘touching’ arises as significant for how Nancy addresses the possibility of ‘alienation from the world’, a possibility that he takes to be central to the self-deconstructive potential of ‘Chri…Read more

51Kant's practical philosophy: from critique to doctrinePalgrave-Macmillan. 2003.The discussion of Kant's Practical Philosophy has been marred by viewing it as purely formalist and centered only on the categorical imperative. This important new study sets out a much more vivid account of the nature and range of Kant's concerns demonstrating his commitment to the notion of rational religion and including extensive discussion of his treatment of evil. Culminating with accounts of property, the nature of right and virtue, this work presents Kant as a vital revolutionary thinker…Read more

50Kant's Critique of RightKantian Review 6 35-59. 2002.This article has two objectives: first, to bring to the fore Kant's neglected distinction between ‘critique’ and ‘doctrine’ and, second, to relate this distinction to Kant's notion of a philosophy of right. Kant's culminating contribution to practical philosophy, the Metaphysics of Morals, contains a doctrine of right and this ‘doctrine’ has received relatively little attention thus far in English-language writing on Kant. One of the reasons for this relative neglect is, I believe, due to the pr…Read more

45The Antimonies of Pure Practical Libertine ReasonAngelaki 15 (1): 13-27. 2010.In this article I revisit the relationship between Immanuel Kant and the Marquis De Sade, following not Jacques Lacan but Pierre Klossowski. In the process I suggest that Sade's work is marred by a series of antinomies that prevent him from stating a pure practical libertine reason and leave his view purely theoretical.
