Its clear, common-sense approach illuminates the most obscure and technical aspects of Hegel's aesthetics. The most difficult issues are elegantly and perspicuously explained. (Frederick C. Beiser, Yale University) 'Hegel's Theory of Aesthetic Judgment' is an important contribution to Hegel studies and a very welcome contribution to aesthetics and its history. Robert Wicks shows that Hegel maintains an historically informed, systematic, and sophisticated middle ground between Hume's empiricism and Kant's rationalism about aesthetic judgments. Wicks's lucid and engaging style makes this very interesting material accessible to general readers of art theory as well as to students. (Kenneth R. Westphal, University of New Hampshire) Author InformationThe Author: Robert Wicks received his Ph.D. and M.A. from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
