Explanation and Value in the Arts offers penetrating studies by art
historians, literary theorists and philosophers, of issues central
to explaining works of literature and painting. The first chapters
look at the sources of interest in the fine arts and point to the
intimate relation between aesthetic and other values. The following
contributions develop the interaction between value and explanation
by examining the construction of value in the study of the arts,
including considerations of the nature of creativity and the
principles for the explanations of works. A final section takes up
questions of the role of ideology and the determining role of
power.
