Synopsis: |
Featuring contributions from Matthew Kieran, Aaron Ridley, Roger Scruton and Mary Mothersill to name but a few, this collection of groundbreaking new papers on aesthetics and ethics, highlights the link between the two subjects. These leading figures tackle the important questions that arise when one thinks about the moral dimensions of art and the aesthetic dimension of moral life. The volume is a significant contribution to philosophical literature, opening up unexplored questions and shedding new light on more traditional debates in aesthetics. The topics explored include: * the relation of aesthetic to ethical judgment * the relation of artistic experience to moral consciousness * the moral status of fiction * the concepts of sentimentality and decadence * the moral dimension of critical practice, pictorial art and music * the moral significance of tragedy * the connections between artistic and moral issues elaborated in the writings of central figures in modern philosophy, such as Kant, Schopenhauer and Nietzsche. The contributors share the view that progress in aesthetics requires detailed study of the practice of criticism.This volume will appeal to both the philosophical community and to researchers in areas such as literary theory, musicology and the theory of art. |
