The late Lewis White Beck, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Rochester for many years, was one of the world's leading Kant scholars. Beck considered the most significant element of Kant's rich, complex, and controversial legacy to be the ultimate philosoophical question: 'What is Man?' Kant's answer - that humans are creators - is ambiguous. On the one hand, it dignifies humans by elevating them above blind mechanical forces of nature. But it also imposes difficult burdens, including the tast of providing a unitary wolrdview and an immanently grounded system of values and norms. The contributors to this volume, under Beck's influence, concur that this theme is of central importance for the proper understanding and evaluation of Kant's legacy. The papers address issues concerning creativy in all aspects of human experience - from knowledge of the external world to self-knowledge, from moral to religious dilemmas, from judgments of taste to the art of living - with a constant awareness of the limitations as well as the possibilities of such creativity. Predrag Cicovacki is Associate Professor of Philosophy, College of the Holy Cross.

The idea of inspiration as a unique state of mind is now treated as little more than an embarrassment, yet Shelley and other writers often present the process of composition as a state of subjective crisis and transformation. Timothy Clark's book is the first systematic analysis of their accounts and the theory of inspiration. This innovative book reassesses surprising readings of the theory of inspiration in Western poetics since the Enlightenment: the place of mass "enthusiasm" or crowd psychology in Romantic conceptions of inspiration; Hölderin's theory of calculable inspiration; H.D.'s transvaluation of Romantic aesthetics; and the decisive place of Surrealism in the emergence of anti-humanist notions of inspiration in the poetics of Blanchot, Celan, and Derrida.

S'interroger sur l'identité d'écrivain, c'est comprendre à quelles conditions un sujet peut dire : « Je suis écrivain ». À travers les thèmes de la subsistance matérielle et de l'engagement dans l'écriture, de la solitude et des liens avec autrui, de l'inspiration et de la publication, des modèles de vie et de la présentation de soi, ce livre tente de dégager la spécificité de l'écriture, et de la création en général, par rapport à d'autres types d'activités susceptibles de définir une identité. Il repose sur une trentaine d'entretiens avec des romanciers, des poètes, des auteurs de théâtre, que complètent des autobiographies, des journaux intimes, des correspondances. Dans la tradition d'une « sociologie compréhensive », l'auteur reconstitue l'espace des possibles imparti aux écrivains et en dégage les « idéal-types », ainsi que leurs critiques par les acteurs et leur mise en perspective par les historiens. On découvre alors que loin d'être homogène, l'identité d'écrivain comporte des dimensions multiples, voire contradictoires, tout en possédant sa propre cohérence. Nathalie Heinich prolonge ici ses précédents travaux, faisant de l'art un moyen privilégié d'explorer des problématiques générales - la reconnaissance et l'admiration, la transgression et l'interdépendance, l'identité et la profession - à travers lesquelles se dévoile peu à peu une sociologie de la singularité.
