Wake of Art : Criticism, Philosophy, and the Ends of Taste
ISBN: 9789057012211 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since the mid-1980s, Arthur C. Danto has been increasingly concerned with the implications of the demise of modernism, and out of the wake of modernist art has suggested that a radically pluralistic art world has emerged. His essays here discuss his vision of the art world and the implications it has for criticism. Horowitz and Huhn analyze in this text the constellation of philosophical and critical elements in Danto's new-Hegelian art theory. In order to do this, the critics employ themes from Kantian aesthetics to elucidate the continuing persistence of taste therein.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge and the Fine Arts
ISBN: 9780199233052 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Although Coleridge's thinking and writing about the fine arts was both considerable and interesting, this has not been the subject of a book before.
Coleridge owed his initiation into art to Sir George Beaumont.

Before leaving for Malta in April 1804, Coleridge wrote "I have learnt as much fr om] Sir George Beaumont respecting Pictures & Painting and Paint ers as] I ever learnt on any subject from any man in the same Space of Time." In... Although Coleridge's thinking and writing about the fine arts was both considerable and interesting, this has not been the subject of a book before. <...

ISBN: 9780817316518 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The writer Stephen Crane (1871 1900) and the painter George Bellows (1882 1925) each wrestled with issues specific to their own fields. But both also have much in common: their works contain residual traces of earlier idioms, register the growing influence of mass culture, and pre-empt the formal strategies and experiments pursued by later modernists.John Fagg tells their stories in alternating chapters that highlight the common vocabularies of art and literature: ellipses, frames, and aphorisms in Crane s writing, and Bellows s use of anecdote, schema, and cliche. Chapter Two, for example,...
