Summary of Aesthetics and Modernity by Agnes Heller PDF

"Aesthetics and Modernity brings together Agnes Heller's most recent essays around the topics of aesthetic genres such as painting, music, literature and comedy, aesthetic reception, and embodiment. The essays draw on Heller's deep appreciation of aesthetics in all its forms from the classical to the Renaissance and the contemporary periods. Heller's recent work on aesthetics explores the complex status of artworks within the context of the history of modernity, and she engages this task with a critical recognition of modernity's pitfalls. This collection highlights these pitfalls in the context of continuing possibilities for aesthetics and our relationship with works of art, and it throws light on Heller's theory of emotions and feelings and her theory of modernity. Aesthetics and Modernity collects the essential essays of Agnes Heller and is a must-read for anyone interested in Heller's major contributions to philosophy. John Rundell is associate professor of social theory at the University of Melbourne. "--Book jacket.
