    Levinas and the Contemporary Gaze

    by Hagi Kenaan ...
    Series series International Library of Contemporary Philosophy
    Our world is saturated with images. Overwhelmed by this proliferation of visual stimuli, our gaze becomes increasingly bored and distracted. Do we ever really read and engage with images? Can they ever provide the sense of meaningfulness we crave? French-Jewish philosopher Emmanuel Levinas confronted and subverted these questions. A superficial reading of his works might indicate an ambivalence if ... Read more

  • What Art Is

    The Esthetic Theory of Ayn Rand

    by Michelle Kamhi, Louis Torres ...
    What is art? The arts establishment has a simple answer: anything is art if a reputed artist or expert says it is. Though many people are skeptical about the alleged new art forms that have proliferated since the early twentieth century, today's critics claim that all such work, however incomprehensible, is art.A groundbreaking alternative to this view is provided by philosopher-novelist Ayn Rand ...

    The Origins of Romanticism

    by Christopher Thacker ...
    First published in 1983.

    Blanchot, Adorno, and Autonomy

    by William S. Allen ...
    Series series Perspectives in Continental Philosophy
    Maurice Blanchot and Theodor W. Adorno are among the most difficult but also the most profound thinkers in twentieth-century aesthetics.

Such negativity is neither nihilistic nor pessimistic but concerns ... Read more

  • The Aesthetics of Everyday Life

    Edited by Andrew Light, Jonathan Smith ...
    The aesthetics of everyday life, originally developed by Henri Lefebvre and other modernist theorists, is an extension of traditional aesthetics, usually confined to works of art.

  • On Music, Value and Utopia

    Nostalgia for an Age Yet to Come?

    by Stan Erraught ...
    Adorno’s writings are often the starting point for the teaching of popular music studies, usually passing swiftly on, after concluding that ‘he didn’t listen to the right jazz’ or ‘he was a snob’. In this book, using Adorno’s aesthetic theory more generally, a viable philosophical approach to the study of idiomatic, non- standard music is constructed. The links between Adorno’s work and its ... Read more

  • Lucan and the Sublime

    Power, Representation and Aesthetic Experience

    by Henry J. M. Day ...
    Series series Cambridge Classical Studies
    This is the first comprehensive study of the sublime in Lucan. Drawing upon renewed literary-critical interest in the tradition of philosophical aesthetics, Henry Day argues that the category of the sublime offers a means of moving beyond readings of Lucan's Bellum Civile in terms of the poem's political commitment or, alternatively, nihilism. Demonstrating in dialogue with theorists from Burke ... Read more
