More about the book
Challenging traditional views of modern aesthetics, this collection of essays argues for the interconnectedness of art with social and human experiences. Berleant contends that appreciating art's value and insights is enriched by acknowledging its broader societal role, rather than isolating it from moral, practical, and social contexts. This perspective highlights how art contributes to civilization's significance and its potential to humanize individuals, ultimately redefining the aesthetic experience as inherently linked to everyday life.
