Modern literature; Bibliography.Reviews'Until now, there has been no systematic book that elucidates Hegel's detailed accounts of exactly how works in the various media of art present freedom sensuously. Benjamin Rutter has written a wonderfully illuminating study - an indispensable book - that fills this gap and establishes Hegel as arguably the single most important modern theorist of the arts.' Richard Eldridge, Swarthmore College '[W]ithout doubt the most important study of Hegel's conception of modern art published to date. It is also one of the best books on Hegel's aesthetics altogether ... Rutter develops original and perceptive interpretations of (Hegel's views on) Dutch painting, lyric poetry and virtuosity in art, and he combines, in an exemplary manner, a subtle attention to philosophical distinctions with an equally subtle attention to specific works of art ... [H]e has written one of the very best books in any language on Hegel's aesthetics.' Stephen Houlgate, British Journal for the History of Philosophy Author InformationBenjamin Rutter teaches English at Saint Ann's School, Brooklyn, New York. His research interests include German Idealism, contemporary analytic aesthetics, and the philosophy of criticism. This is his first book. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
