Public domain translations of Kant's third Critique

October 29, 2008 10:11 AM

Is the second part of Kant's Critique of Judgment, in English translation, available online/in public domain? I can find James Creed Meredith's translation of the first part (Critique of Aesthetic Judgment), but cannot find any translations of the second part (Critique of Teleological Judgment). I'm not interested in the latest translations or paying for an ebook; this is just some fun reading for me, and if buying the book is the only option, I'll just borrow the Guyer translation from the library. And if there's some reason why the second half is not in the public domain while the first part is, I'd be interested in finding out why.

If you're okay with reading in-browser, it appears to be here in its entirety. There's no PDF, though, presumably because the edition Google scanned is not public domain.
