The German philosopher Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten (1714-1762) is
known as the founder of modern aesthetics because he introduced the
term "aesthetics" into philosophy in his Reflections on Poetry
(1736), Metaphysics (1739), and in his unfinished Aesthetics
(1750/1758). This volume is the first collection of essays in the
English language devoted to Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten's
aesthetics. The essays collected in this volume explain the
distinguishing features of Baumgarten's aesthetics; situate it in
its historical context; document its reception; and examine its
contributions to contemporary philosophy.
