  Beyond Art and Beauty: In Search of the Object of Philosophical Aesthetics
 
 
Title: Beyond Art and Beauty: In Search of the Object of Philosophical Aesthetics
Author: Speer, Andreas
Appeared in: International journal of philosophical studies
Paging: Volume 8 (2000) nr. 1 pages 73-88
Year: 2000-03-01
Contents: This article deals with the ambigous situation of philosophical aesthetics, which now seems to have lost its proper object. Moreover, Arthur C. Danto has popularized talk of an end of art, in which he ties that end to the end of any aesthetic master narrative. Comparing modern and medieval approaches to art, this paper tries to reformulate the question of philosophical aesthetics, which has to be understood in a hermeneutical way. Taken in a heuristic manner 'art' and 'beauty' remain the principal aesthetic categories able to keep the understanding of what belongs to aesthetics open to different historical approaches.
