Description
Theodor Adorno’s famous aesthetic theory was not merely a theory of the aesthetic; it also made a wider claim about the aesthetic implications of all theory. At the same time, we have to deal with aesthetic objects and events in which an aesthetic theory is inherent, which show themselves as art. From both sides—theory and aesthetics—a link can be made to the etymological meaning of theōria, which understands the theoretical as a seeing or perspective.
Featuring lucid essays by major thinkers, Aesthetic Theory examines this link, focusing equally on the aesthetic implications of theory and the theoretical implications of aesthetic events.
