Stecker introduces students to the history and evolution of aesthetics, and also makes an important distinction between aesthetics and philosophy of art. While aesthetics is the study of value, philosophy of art deals with a much wider array of questions including issues in metaphysics, epistemology, the philosophy of mind, as well value theory. Described as a 'remarkably unified introduction to many contemporary debates in aesthetics and the philosophy of art,' Stecker specializes in sympathetically laying bear the play of argument that emerges as competing views on a topic engage each other. This book does not simply present a controversy in its current state of play, but instead demonstrates a philosophical mind at work helping to advance the issue toward a solution.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 154mmItem Width: 19mmItem Weight: 499gAuthor: Robert SteckerGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityBook Series: Elements of PhilosophyRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
