More about the book
Exploring the intersection of neuroscience and philosophical aesthetics, the book delves into our responses to beauty and sublimity. It distinguishes between innate aesthetic appreciation and socially constructed notions of beauty, analyzing emotional engagement and cognitive processing. Key themes include the reconciliation of universal aesthetic principles with personal experiences, the rational discourse surrounding aesthetic judgments, and the impact of personal beauty on art's definition. The analysis is enriched by references to influential figures like Woolf, Shakespeare, and Beethoven.
