"This is just the kind of text I would use on my course." -- Gary Peters, University of West of England
... balanced and judicious selection of the most important texts from two centuries of European ruminations on art and its meaning... a welcome gift.
–Martin Jay, University of California Berkeley
A substantial anthology ...
