Abstract
A literary criticism of the book "Herder's Naturalist Aesthetics," by Rachel Zuckert is presented. It examines Zucker's attribution of explanatory naturalism to philosopher Johann Gottfried Herder wherein she argues that Herder appeals to God in explanation, the indication that Herder rejects explanatory naturalism, the requirements of Herder's aesthetics, and the type of naturalism that is compatible with the normativity of Herder's aesthetics.
