Richard Kearney and David Rasmussen have curated a judicious selection of pivotal texts, creating a volume that serves excellently as a textbook not only for aesthetics but also for continental philosophy courses. It is praised by Robert Bernasconi of the University of Memphis for surpassing previous collections in the field. Richard Shusterman, author of Pragmatist Aesthetics, highlights the anthology's inclusion of a wide range of important European theorists, making it highly useful for aesthetics and literary theory studies.
