5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Book I Ever Read About Art, August 17, 2005

By	T. Burrows (New York, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I read this in graduate school, and more than anything else that I have read, it helped me to understand what art is and how it works. I don't just mean visual art either - all the arts. This really should be required reading for any educated reader with the passion for the arts. I would gladly buy it again - but not at the ridiculous price this publisher wants for it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Langer is 1 of the best art philosophers of the 20th Century, May 10, 1999

By A Customer

I have read two chapters by her in a undergrad class that surveys aesthetic philosophy, I am buying this book to dig in deeper to what she has to say. If you are interested in a book which defines every word effectively, and is written in Modern American English, this is your author.
