Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on the Nature and Principles of Taste The perception of these qualities is attended with an emo tion of pleasure, very distinguishable from every other pleas ure of our nature, and which is accordingly distinguished by the name of the emotion of taste. The distinction of the objects of taste, into the sublime and beautiful, has produced a similar division of this emotion, into the manners of sunburn! And the emotion of beauty. The qualities that produce these emotions, are to be found in almost every class of the objects of human knowledge, and the emotions themselves afford one of the most extensive sour ces of human delight. They occur to us, amid every variety of external scenery, and among many diversities of disposition and affection in the mind of man. The most pleasing arts of human invention are altogether directed to their pursuit: and even the necessary arts are exalted into dignity, by the genius that can unite beauty with use. From the. Earliest period of so ciety, to its last stage of improvement, they afford an innocent and elegant amusement to private life, at the same time that they increase the splendour of national character and in the pro gress of nations, as well as of individuals, while they attract attention from the pleasures they bestow, they serve to exalt the human mind, from corporeal to intellectual pursuits.

Download or read book The Century of Taste written by George Dickie and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1996-01-04 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Century of Taste offers an exposition and critical account of the central figures in the early development of the modern philosophy of art. Dickie traces the modern theory of taste from its first formulation by Francis Hutcheson, to blind alleys followed by Alexander Gerard and Archibald Allison, its refinement and complete expression by Hume, and finally to its decline in the hands of Kant. In a clear and straightforward style, Dickie offers sympathetic discussions of the theoretical aims of these philosophers, but does not shy from controversy--pointing out, for instance, the obscurities and inconsistencies in Kant's aesthetic writings, and arguing that they have been overrated.
