- Summary:
- While considered by many as one of the greatest philosophers of religion and metaphysicians of the 20th century, Charles Hartshornes (1897-2000) contributions to the study of aesthetics are perhaps the most neglected aspect of his extensive and highly nuanced thought. DIVINE BEAUTY offers the first detailed explication of Hartshornes aesthetic theory and its place within his theocentric philosophy.
