Aesthetics : an introduction to the philosophy of art

In this up-to-date introduction to aesthetics, Anne Sheppard tackles the profoundly complex questions that lie at the heart of the subject. Including chapters on form, beauty and aesthetic appreciation, and the relationship between art and morals, the book analyses the sort of judgements we make when we examine a painting, look at a building, listen to a piece of music, or study a work of literature.
