Aesthetics: A Very Short Introduction
Oxford, United Kingdom: Oxford University Press (2019)
Abstract
Bence Nanay introduces aesthetics, a branch of philosophy that explores the nature of art, beauty, and taste. Looking beyond traditional artistic experiences, he defends the topic from accusations of elitism, and shows how more everyday experiences such as the pleasure in a soft fabric or falling leaves can become the subject of aesthetics.Author's Profile
