Book Actions and Objects from Hobbes to Richardson

Download or read book Actions and Objects from Hobbes to Richardson written by Jonathan Kramnick and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2010-08-30 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do minds cause events in the world? How does wanting to write a letter cause a person's hands to move across the page, or believing something to be true cause a person to make a promise? In Actions and Objects, Jonathan Kramnick examines the literature and philosophy of action during the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, when philosophers and novelists, poets and scientists were all concerned with the place of the mind in the world. These writers asked whether belief, desire, and emotion were part of nature—and thus subject to laws of cause and effect—or in a special place outside the natural order. Kramnick puts particular emphasis on those who tried to make actions compatible with external determination and to blur the boundary between mind and matter. He follows a long tradition of examining the close relation between literary and philosophical writing during the period, but fundamentally revises the terrain. Rather than emphasizing psychological depth and interiority or asking how literary works were understood as true or fictional, he situates literature alongside philosophy as jointly interested in discovering how minds work.

Download or read book Jonathan Richardson written by Carol Gibson-Wood and published by Paul Mellon Ctr for Studies. This book was released on 2000 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jonathan Richardson (1667-1745), one of his generation's foremost portrait painters, was also one of the most influential art theorists in eighteenth-century Britain. His writings constitute the most important art theory discussions in English before the Romantic period. In this critical biography of Richardson, Carol Gibson-Wood provides for the first time a detailed account of the artist's life, including new information from original archival sources and unpublished correspondence, along with an analysis of Richardson's most significant theoretical texts. Gibson-Wood describes art consumption in England in Richardson's time as well as the debates concerning native versus continental painting. She argues that Richardson's personal and written responses to these circumstances quintessentially embodied bourgeois English Enlightenment ideals and the Lockean principles underpinning them. The first part of the book examines Richardson's personal life, professional career, literary aspirations, activities as a collector, and his relations with such contemporaries as Alexander Pope. In the second part Gibson-Wood sets Richardson's writings in the contexts of earlier art theory and of

Book The Sublime

    Book Details:
  • Author : Andrew Ashfield
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 1996-08-15
  • ISBN : 9780521395823
  • Pages : 332 pages

Download or read book The Sublime written by Andrew Ashfield and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-08-15 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of texts on the Sublime provides the historical context for the foundation and discussion of one of the most important aesthetic debates of the Enlightenment. The significance of the Sublime in the eighteenth century ranged across a number of fields - literary criticism, empirical psychology, political economy, connoisseurship, landscape design and aesthetics, painting and the fine arts, and moral philosophy - and has continued to animate aesthetic and theoretical debates to this day. However, the unavailability of many of the crucial texts of the founding tradition has resulted in a conception of the Sublime often limited to the definitions of its most famous theorist Edmund Burke. Andrew Ashfield and Peter de Bolla's anthology, which includes an introduction and notes to each entry, offers students and scholars ready access to a much deeper and more complex tradition of writings on the Sublime, many of them never before printed in modern editions.
