OverviewAFTER TASTE is an exploration of the foundations and limits, structures and histories as well as the actuality and popularity of Taste. Taste has always been a category outreaching aesthetics, which once seemed obsolete, but lives on because the moment to realize it was missed. AFTER TASTE addresses a number of research desiderata growing alongside the swelling corpus of literature and the public discourse, such as (1) âTaste tabooâ in the current theory, (2) the matter of being âlike-mindedâ in the exclusive academic and popular chatrooms, (3) the explosion of literature concerning matters of âpersonal Tasteâ and âevaluative domainâ, (4) the contemporary structures of humanistic disciplines and (5) the corresponding phenomena faced by âgeneration Likeâ. AFTER TASTE is a comprehensive companion for readers of humanities approaching the concept of Taste for the first time. Moreover, it is intended for anyone who hopes to make a further contribution to the subject. The first volume covers a systematic perspective serving to explore Tasteâs trajectories between thinking, perceiving and judging. It deals with their relationships and questions. Taste as a key factor for understanding of human faculties, value theories and valuating practices. The general question asked here is âwhy must we give reasons for matters of Taste?â The second volume explores the instrumentality of the concept of Taste for the production, reception and distribution aspects of knowledge and culture throughout the eighteenth century and until the present time. The question asked here is âhow was Tasteâs genealogy affected through major (inter-) cultural contexts?â The third volume covers the sociocultural and political-economical perspective â the âpopularâ and âcommonsensicalâ aspects of Taste. A central question asked here is âwhich functions took Taste to inform the central humanistic disciplines and the popular discourse?â Full Product DetailsAuthor: Slavko KacunkoPublisher: Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH Imprint: Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH Weight: 2.939kg ISBN: 9783832553524ISBN 10: 3832553525 Pages: 1380 Publication Date: 15 September 2021 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
