Description

This book investigates the conception of finality in nature («teleology») in Immanuel Kants «critical philosophy» and in Maurice Blondels work. The introduction explains the genuine necessity of a reflection on the problem of finality in nature and the role Kants and Blondels philosophies could play in it. The first part of the study describes Kants teleology from the perspective of the whole of his «critical philosophy» and shows both its strengths and its weaknesses. The second part exposes Blondels conception of finality in nature and explains how it can be seen as a successful effort to cope with the problems of Kantian thought. In conclusion, the work underlines the inevitability of teleology as an epistemic approach to nature and its value for a contemporary world view.
