Description
A History of Modern Aesthetics: Volume 3, The Twentieth Century by Paul Guyer The twentieth century was a time of profound change in philosophy, the arts, and social and political life. This third volume of A History of Modern Aesthetics explores how philosophers of art in Germany, Britain, and the United States responded to these challenges, continuing the debate over cognitivist versus alternative approaches to aesthetic experience that had shaped the discipline since the eighteenth century. The history of philosophical aesthetics is a story of synthesis and separation, as different thinkers integrated or rejected the ideas of their predecessors. This book focuses on the key figures and ideas of modern aesthetics, tracing the development of the field from the eighteenth century to the twentieth. From the introduction of new ideas about the emotional impact of art to the intellectual challenges of the modern era, A History of Modern Aesthetics provides a comprehensive and nuanced account of the subject.
