Early Modern Aesthetics is a concise and accessible guide to the
history of aesthetics in the early modern period. J. Colin
McQuillan shows how philosophers concerned with art and beauty
positioned themselves with respect to the ancients and the moderns,
how they thought the arts were to be distinguished and classified,
the principles they proposed for art and literary criticism, and
how they made aesthetics a part of philosophy in the eighteenth
century. The book explores the controversies that arose among
philosophers with different views on these issues, their relation
to the philosophy, science, and art, and their legacy for
contemporary aesthetics.
