The Continental Aesthetics Reader

'The Continental Aesthetics Reader is a rich and intellectually uncompromising anthology. It fills an important gap in the literature.' - Timothy R. Quigley, New School for Social Research, USA

'There is a clear need for a reader in continental aesthetics and Clive Cazeaux has assembled the readings with great care.' - Michael Newman, Slade School of Art, London, UK

'Cazeaux's brief introductions to the selections are insightful and cogent. This volume will serve as a much-needed source for considering the range and depth of modern aesthetic theory.' - Tom Huhn, Wesleyan University, USA

'... a balanced and judicious selection of the most important texts from two centuries of European ruminations on art and its meaning... a welcome gift.' - Martin Jay, University of California, Berkeley, USA
