This volume brings together the finest research on aesthetics and
the philosophy of art by stalwart critics and leading scholars in
the field. It discusses various themes, such as the idea of
aesthetic perception, the nature of aesthetic experience, attitude
theory, the relation of art to morality, representation in art, and
the association of aesthetics with language studies in the Indian
tradition. It deliberates over the theories and views of Aristotle,
Freud, Plato, Immanuel Kant, T. S. Eliot, George Dickie, Leo
Tolstoy, R. G. Collingwood, Michael H. Mitias, Monroe C. Beardsley,
and Abhinavagupta, among others. The book offers a comparative
perspective on Indian and Western approaches to the study of art
and aesthetics and enables readers to appreciate the similarities
and differences between the conceptions of aesthetics and
philosophy of art on a comparative scale detailing various aspects
of both. The first of its kind, this key text will be useful for
scholars and researchers of arts and aesthetics, philosophy of art,
cultural studies, comparative literature, and philosophy in
general. It will also appeal to general readers interested in the
philosophy of art.
