Synopsis
This second edition features a new 48-page Afterword--1980 updating Professor Beardsley's classic work.
"There is not much I could say to expand the reputation of this classic text, but it is a testament to Beardsley's deep insight that I am finding the book useful for the study of Chinese aesthetics--which Beardsley himself never intended to broach. There may still be no better introduction to thinking about art and beauty." --Paul R. Goldin, University of Pennsylvania
