Cluster Course: Aesthetic Issues In The Arts
|
|
|
Specialists in various art forms (e.g., literature, music, painting) will discuss specific artworks from their own perspective as artists and/or critics. This gives the student first-hand experience of how questions dealt with in the philosophy of art arise. Using this common core of examples, philosophical issues such as relevance of artists' intentions to interpretation and evaluation, the nature of aesthetic value, the nature and significance of comedy, and special issues raised by contemporary developments in the arts are discussed.
