Croce and Art,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Guide to Aesthetics (Paperback)
Difficult and challenging, Croce's work provides a unique approach to the study of art, art criticism, and aesthetics. This is not an easy read, but the insights into the nature and place of art in society and in the human soul make it wort hthe effort. This is best read with R.G. Collingwood's work on Art.
