He retains that which is helpful, and gives rigorously logical reasons for abandoning outmoded, contingent judgments. - The Owl of Minerva The major strength of Winfield's book comes from his ambition to offer a distinctive view of philosophical aesthetics as developed from Hegel's own treatment of art. He defends a position which claims to avoid transcendental aesthetics on the one hand, and what Winfield calls metaphysical aesthetics on the other. His systematic rethinking of the aesthetic is marked by genuine philosophical seriousness. He constructively contributes to reformulating the Hegelian way of thinking. This book extends the range of Winfield's work as a systematic thinker. - William Desmond, Loyola College Author InformationRichard Dien Winfield is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Georgia.
