Thinking about art has a long history. This six-session course provides an opportunity to explore ideas from Plato's Ion and Republic through to Kant's Critique of Judgement. Each week we will discuss a reading from Cahn and Meskin eds. Aesthetics: A Comprehensive Anthology (Blackwell, 2008). You will also have the opportunity to think about particular works in the Tate Modern collection in relation to these ideas. Key themes include the nature of art, beauty, the sublime, and value judgements about the arts.
