Kant, art, and objects
 

Hayot 60: "[T]he object construed by idiographic analysis has the implicit ontological structure of a Kantian work of art"
 
we can "essentially treat those examples as an expression of 'beauty,' as Kant defines it in his Critique of the Power of Judgment"
 
this gives these examples a sort of "epistemological protection"
