Slight wear to spine, covers, corners and dustjacket.; "Inquiries into the Fundamentals of Aesthetics" by Stefan Morawski is a comprehensive examination of aesthetic theory and its philosophical underpinnings. Morawski, a prominent aesthetician and philosopher, delves deep into the essence of aesthetic experience, questioning how and why certain artistic expressions affect us. The book explores the historical development of aesthetic thought, tracing it from classical to modern times, and scrutinizes various dimensions of interpretation and perception in the appreciation of art. Morawski argues for the relevance of aesthetics in contemporary culture and challenges the reader to reconsider the role of art in society. He presents a critique of the subjective versus objective dichotomy in art criticism and suggests a synthesis that acknowledges the socio-cultural influences on art while upholding the importance of individual experience. Throughout the book, Morawski employs a rigorous analytical approach, using examples from a wide range of arts to illustrate his points. His work encourages a deeper understanding of art's potential to influence and reflect human conditions, making "Inquiries into the Fundamentals of Aesthetics" a vital resource for scholars and students of philosophy and art alike.; Octavo; xx, 408 pages.
