This book illuminates the aesthetically underrated meaningfulness
of particular elements in works of art and aesthetic experiences
generally. Beginning from the idea of "hooks" in popular song, the
book identifies experiences of special liveliness that are of
enduring interest, supporting contemplation and probing discussion.
When hooks are placed in the foreground of aesthetic experience, so
is an enthusiastic "grabbing back" by the experiencer who forms a
quasi-personal bond with the beloved singular moment and is
probably inclined to share this still-evolving realization of value
with others. This book presents numerous models of enthusiastic
"grabbing back" that are art-critically motivated to explain how
hooks achieve their effects and philosophically motivated to
discover how hooks and hook appreciation contribute to a more
ideally desirable life. Framing hook appreciation with a defensible
general model of aesthetic experience, this book gives an
unprecedented demonstration of the substantial aesthetic and
philosophical interest of hook-centered inquiry.
