Description
Aesthetic Realism by Inês Morais is a thought-provoking exploration of realism in aesthetics. The author argues that art criticism refers to genuine properties of works, rather than subjective reactions. Morais examines the debate in aesthetics and philosophy of art concerning aesthetic realism, discussing attacks on the objectivity of values and the autonomy thesis. She also considers Hume's sentimentalism and scepticism about the significance of the ontological debate about aesthetic realism. This book provides a positive realist account of aesthetic properties, defending the doctrine against powerful attacks and offering a lucid analysis of the subject.
