Part 1 Stories: nature's mirror - imitation, representation and imagination; Anglo-Kantian attitudes; "ne'er so well expressed"; tales from the Vienna woods - Wittgenstein and after; after the Holocaust - Adorno's challenge and Beuys' answer.

Synopsis
This introduction to the philosophy of art should be a useful text for students embarking on aesthetics courses., This book presents an up-to-date introduction to the subject that captures the excitement and passion of art itself. It opens by exploring why art is important to us and goes on to grip the reader with a discussion of all of the areas central to aesthetics: aesthetic experience, representation, expression, definition of art, evaluation, interpretation, structuralism and post-structuralism, truth and morality. It draws upon the great thinkers on art, Plato and Kant, Croce and Beardsley, including the most recent iconoclastic views of Barthes and Derrida.

    My book arrived in good condition. Packaging was a rigid cardboard mailer, and it protected my book well. It was shipped in a reasonable amount of time, but I was still prompted to reach out to inquire further about it. Seller communication was very good, answering me within 24-hours. I was told shipping can take 9-15 days to happen... it arrived within 10 days after purchase. I would purchase from this seller again. Two thumbs up!

    I recently purchased a book from this Seller, and I couldn't be more pleased with the entire experience. The book arrived in excellent condition, exactly as described. It was packaged in a sturdy, reusable cardboard envelope using no plastic at all. Delivery was surprisingly fast, exceeding my expectations. I highly recommend this Seller!

    1974 Allen & Unwin LOTR boxed/sleeved set is as pictured & described. Hard to get this set w/an intacte box! The set (along with another order) arrived quickly & safely into my greedy handses! The trilogy set was wrapped in cardboard, almost an Origami type deal that did a great job protecting the book(s) inside! Fort Knox in an Origami Box! Always a great value from Awesomebooksusa! Descriptions always accurate & always well packaged. Thank you! Happy w/purchase! !!Seller Highly Recommended!!!
