Feminism in Context: A Role for Feminist Theory in Aesthetic Evaluation
In John W. Bender & Gene Blocker (eds.), Contemporary Philosophy of Art: Readings in Analytic Aesthetics. Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632, USA: pp. 106-112 (1993)
Abstract
This paper explores the role of 1980s to early 1990s feminist theory of art within the analytic philosophical tradition of aesthetics starting with a critique of the noncontextual criticism of aesthetics of Jerome Stolnitz and Monroe Beardsley contrasted with contextual feminist theory, informed by contextual theories of Arthur Danto, George Dickie and Marcia Eaton, and concluding that knowledge of external, contextual data is necessarily required to assess a work of art that has been deemed a work of art by means of external, contextual data. Feminist theory is one type of contextual theory available.Author's Profile
