Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Aesthetic It would have been foolish, I thought, to omit the more obvious points of the mediaeval development, both in art and in opinion, the mere mention of which might be suggestive to my readers, simply because I had to take them from such writers as Prof. Adamson, Prof. Seth, Prof. Middleton, Mr. Morris and Mr. Pater, and not from original research. Some division of labour must be allowed, though the fact that it has been resorted to should always be made known.

This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guide to the Literature of Aesthetics It will be the aim Of future bibliographies to take up special topics Of aesthetic criticism, to analyze them minutely, and to collect from available sources whatever references are found to bear upon them. Such a bibliography in respect Of Literary Criticism has been prepared, and will shortly be sent to press. In the collection of material the work has Of necessity been confined to two University libraries, neither Of which is SO well equipped with special treatises on aesthetics as might be desired. Furthermore, since the list has been, in general, limited to works consulted at the shelves, the compilers have been, at times, reduced to the citation Of an inferior edition, although they knew that a later and, presumably, better edition existed. But to bow to this inevitable has seemed wiser than to circulate information at second hand. Of course, in a few cases, reference has been made to volumes not owned by either library, volumes, however, altogether too important to be omitted from a general list.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aesthetics, or the Science of Beauty The following Lectures were written with a desire to supply the want of an exclusive and compact treatise on the principles of taste. So many principles have been established in the department of beauty, so much of the mind's action in this direction is understood, as to entitle the subject to distinct consideration; and, at the risk of some offence, we have ventured to style our work AEsthetics; or, The Science of Beauty. It has been our aim to combine and present in a systematic form those facts and principles which constitute the department of taste, and, as far as may be, to make good its claim to the rank of a distinct science. In so doing, we have striven to render a service to the general reader, and yet more to this branch of instruction. The present edition is corrected and enlarged as the result of further thought, and new opportunities of observation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles of Aesthetics This book has grown out of lectures to students at the University of Mchigan and embodies my effort to express to them the nature and meaning of art. In writing it, I have sought to maintain scientific accuracy, yet at the same time to preserve freedom of style and something of the inspiration of the subject. While intended primarily for students, the book will appeal generally, I hope, to people who are interested in the intelligent appreciation of art. My obligations are extensive, most directly to those whom I have cited in foot-notes to the text, but also to others whose influence is too indirect or per vasive to make citation profitable, or too obvious to make it necessary. For the broader philosophy of art, my debt is heaviest, I believe, to the artists and philosophers during the period from Herder to Hegel, who gave to the study its greatest development, and, among contemporaries, to Croce and Lipps. In addition, I have drawn freely upon the more special investigations of recent times, but with the caution desirable in view of the very tentative character of some of the results. To lwrs. Robert M. Wenley I wish to express my thanks for her very careful and helpful reading of the page proof. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from AEsthetics As there is no such thing as abstract art, l'art en soi, because absolute beauty is a chimera, l so neither is there any definitive and final system of Esthetics. All the various formulas by which at various times it has been im prisoned - idealism, naturalism, realism, and such like, are nothing but different ways of looking at art, which is not entirely contained in any one of them. Each of them may recommend itself to certain individual or national tempera ments but it is absurd to force them upon natures to which they are repugnant. It is quite as ridiculous to condemn Flemish or Dutch art in the name of Greek sculpture, as to go through the reverse process, and to refuse all praise to Phidias because he is not Rembrandt. Courbet, too, is legitimate. We may be allowed to prefer one to the other, according to our natural attraction and affinities; but zesthetics has no more right to exclude either the one or the other, than we have to import passion and partiality into a question of science.

He might to know the essentials which constitute good literature, - that the essentials necessary for significance are the same in all the arts, literature, poetry, music and painting. Art can be important on account of possessing one of three or all three of these essentials. The first is that it conspicuously reflects the time in which it was produced; the second, for its strong individual viewpoint; and third, for its painter-like qualities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Physiological AEsthetics "Why we receive pleasure from some forms and colours and not from others," says Professor Ruskin, "is no more to be asked or answered than why we like sugar and dislike wormwood." The questions thus summarily dismissed by our great living authority on Esthetics are exactly the ones which this little book asks, and, I hope, answers. Nor is it only thinkers of Professor Ruskin's school who find a difficulty in these fundamental problems. "No doubt the perceptive powers of man and the lower animals," says Mr. Darwin, "are so constituted that brilliant colours and certain forms, as well as harmonious and rhythmical sound, s give pleasure and are called beautiful: but why this should be so we know no more than why certain bodily sensations are agreeable and others disagreeable." I have endeavoured to meet the difficulty which our great teacher thus suggests by a line of argument analogous to his own.

This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Genesis of the Aesthetic Categories I. The aesthetic consciousness in its beginnings is connected with art rather than with nature. II. The relation of the aesthetic (appreciative) consciousness to art is not that of cause, but that of effect. Art has not arisen primarily to satisfy an already existing love of beauty. It has arisen chiefly, if-not wholly, from other springs, and has itself created the sense by which it is enjoyed. III. Art has its origins, almost without exception, in social relations' it has developed under social pressure; it has been fostered by social occasions; it has in turn served social ends in the struggle for existence. In consequence, the values attributed to aesthetic objects have social standards, and the aesthetic attitude will be determined largely by these, social antecedents. Or, in other words, the explanation of the aesthetic categories is to be sought largely in social psychology. Before considering the propositions seriatim, it will be convenient to note briefly what the characteristics of the aesthetic consciousness are. In this the aim will be, not to present an exhaustive list, but rather to indicate categories which have been generally and widely recognized as. Distinguishing the aesthetic from other values, such as the ethical, logical, or economic, or from other pleasures, such as the agreeable. And amid the seeming multiplicity of such marks or differentia which have been put forth by writers on aesthetics there is, after all, a considerable degree of uniformity.' They may be grouped under three heads. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
