Abstract

This is the author's reflections on formal responses, and a discussion, which took place at the book launch for Christopher Insole's Kant and the Divine: From Contemplation to the Moral Law (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2020), hosted jointly, in November 2020, by the Centre for Catholic Studies, Durham University, and the Australian Catholic University. Topics covered include: the aesthetic properties of Kant's philosophy, the difference between the received Kant and the textual Kant, the theological hostility to (and appropriation of) Kant, Insole's claim that Kant believes in God, but is not a Christian.
