Presents a study about the revival of interest in aesthetics and literary criticism. Alphabetically arranged, the 130 articles in this book provide comprehensive coverage of the main topics and writers in this area of aesthetics. It is aimed at the students of philosophy, literary criticism and cultural studies - as well as the general reader.
Questions about the nature of beauty and the relation between morality and art were among the earliest discussed by ancient philosophers. And today, a host of new issues has been prompted by recent developments in the arts and in philosophy, testifying to a great revival of interest in aesthetics and literary criticism. The nature of representation, the relation between art and truth, and the criteria for interpretation are among the most debated problems in contemporary philosophy. Alphabetically arranged, the 130 articles in this volume provide comprehensive coverage of the main topics and writers in this area of aesthetics. "The Companion" will serve students of philosophy, literary criticism and cultural studies - as well as the general reader - both as a work of reference and, with its many substantial essays, as a guide to the best thinking about the arts in the late twentieth century.
