- Summary:
- This collection of twelve essays explores the versatility of Richard Shusterman's pragmatic aesthetics. They are organized into three sections on literary theory and philosophy of art; somaesthetics; and issues in epistemology, metaphysics, ethics and politics. Specific essays pursue the idea of emotion, the therapeutic function of art, the limits of fallibilism, paradoxes of super-human self-styling, somaesthetics and democracy, and corporeal values. The contributors are European and American writers and professors of philosophy, English, and history. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
