Researching Visual Arts Education in Museums and Galleries: An International Reader
ISBN: 9781402016363 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 242 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. A dramatic increase in interest, world wide, in the educational role of galleries and museums has occurred in the past decade. This results in part from a rekindling of the debate about their purpose and effectiveness - whether as public institutions founded with educational intentions, or as private foundations with an educational interest. While diverse informal learning opportunities and more structured education programmes have multiplied as a consequence, and networks have been established for sharing ideas, the need for a more substantial and sustained approach to research-informed...

Volume 9: Aesthetics and Philosophy of Art
ISBN: 9781402050688 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 414 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The present volume is a continuation of the series Contemporary Philosophy. As with the earlier volumes in the series, the present chronicles purport to give a survey of significant trends in cont- porary philosophy. The need for such surveys has, I believe, increased rather than decreased over the years. The philosophical scene appears, for various reasons, more complex than ever before. The continuing process of specialization in most branches, the increasing contact between philosophers from various cultures, the emergence of new schools of thought, particularly in philosophical logic and...
