About this product

Product Information

Seeks to bring present-day philosophy principles into the history of aesthetics Before the publication of Aesthetics from Classical Greece to the Present there were three histories of aesthetics in English--Bosanquet's pioneering work, the second part of Croce's Aesthetic in the Ainsle translation, and the comprehensive volume by Gilbert and Kuhn. While each of these is interesting in its own ways, and together they cover a good deal of ground, none of them is very new. Thus none could take advantage of recent work on many important philosophers and periods and bring into a consideration of the past the best concepts and principles that have been developed by present-day philosophy. In Aesthetics from Classical Greece to the Present the author seeks to bring these principles to the forefront in exploring the history of aesthetics.

Reviews
"Of the histories of aesthetics in English…Beardsley's book is the best. It is brisk, it is written in a clear plain style, and it is scholarly without being pretentious or overwhelming. "For those of us who want to know what philosophers have said about beauty and the arts, this book will be especially useful."- The Philosophical Review, "Of the histories of aesthetics in English...Beardsley's book is the best.

"For those of us who want to know what philosophers have said about beauty and the arts, this book will be especially useful."-- The Philosophical Review, "Beardsley's book accomplishes to perfection what the writer intended. It illuminates an area of history from a certain perspective as was never done before. . . . The distinguishing feature of his book is a n excitement over everything I aesthetics that has to do with symbols, meanings, language, and modes of interpretation. And this excitement has brought to light facets of the history f the subject never noticed before, or at least, not so clearly." -- Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism, "The depth of Beardsley's scholarly competence . . . speaks from every page.  He makes a masterful analysis of Aristotle's concepts . . . Then follows his chapter on the Middle Ages, which is outstanding. . . . And so the book goes forward with penetrating analysis and unexpected relevancies.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
