The philosophy of art
About
"In this text, Stephen Davies provides an incisive account of the core subjects and questions in contemporary philosophy of art. Topics include the interpretation of art: the relation between art, culture, and our evolutionary heritage; the expression and arousal of emotion through art; the challenges posed by varieties of art over time and across cultures; and provocative puzzles about the value of art." "Featuring full-color illustrations, examples, and questions for further reflection, The Philosophy of Art offers thoughtful discussion for anyone interested in the nature and appreciation of art."--Jacket.
