Description

Emory Elliott (ed); Louis Freitas Caton (ed); Jeffrey Rhyne (ed). This volume examines a variety of significant multidisciplinary & multicultural topics within the subject of aesthetics. Addressing the vexed relation of the arts & criticism to current political & cultural concerns, the contributors attempt to bridge the two decades-old gap between scholars & critics who hold conflicting views of the purposes of art & criticism. By exploring some of the ways in which global migration & expanding ethnic diversity are affecting cultural productions & prompting reassessment of the nature & role of aesthetic discourse, this volume provides a new evaluation of aesthetic ideas & practices within contemporary arts & letters. Illustrations.
