Tragic Beauty in Whitehead and Japanese Aesthetics
Lanham: Lexington Books (2016)
Abstract
This book examines Whitehead’s process aesthetics focusing on two categories, the penumbral beauty of darkness and the tragic beauty of perishability, while establishing parallels with the Japanese sense of evanescent beauty. It clarifies how both traditions develop a religio-aesthetic vision of tragic beauty and its reconciliation in the supreme ecstasy of peace.Author's Profile
