In this essay, I will deal with Umberto Eco’s (1932–2016) interpretation of the Critique ofthe Power ofJudgment by Kant. It is an important topic, since it concerns the transformation and the “adaption” of the concept of schema from the Critique of the Pure Reason to the third Kantian Critique. In his interpretation, on the one hand, Eco connects the Critique of the Power of Judgment to some problems of the contemporary cognitive sciences, especially David Marr’s work on vision. On the other hand, Eco sees a very important connection between the reflective judgment by Kant and the idea of abduction by Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914).

Abstract
In this essay, I will deal with Umberto Eco’s (1932–2016) interpretation of the Critique ofthe Power ofJudgment by Kant. It is an important topic, since it concerns the transformation and the “adaption” of the concept of schema from the Critique of the Pure Reason to the third Kantian Critique. In his interpretation, on the one hand, Eco connects the Critique of the Power of Judgment to some problems of the contemporary cognitive sciences, especially David Marr’s work on vision. On the other hand, Eco sees a very important connection between the reflective judgment by Kant and the idea of abduction by Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
