Hegel on the Modern Arts by Benjamin Rutter (English) Paperback Book

Description: Hegel on the Modern Arts by Benjamin Rutter Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Hegels farseeing suggestion that art reaches its end in modernity resonates powerfully today. Drawing on unpublished lectures, Rutter recasts received views of Hegels position, demonstrating the subtlety and relevance of his responses to Dutch painting and Romantic poetry and arguing, finally, for Hegels importance as a philosopher of modern life. Publisher Description Debates over the end of art have tended to obscure Hegels work on the arts themselves. Benjamin Rutter opens this study with a defence of arts indispensability to Hegels conception of modernity; he then seeks to reorient discussion toward the distinctive values of painting, poetry, and the novel. Working carefully through Hegels four lecture series on aesthetics, he identifies the expressive possibilities particular to each medium. Thus, Dutch genre scenes animate the everyday with an appearance of vitality; metaphor frees language from prose; and Goethes lyrics revive the banal routines of love with imagination and wit. Rutters important study reconstructs Hegels view not only of modern art but of modern life and will appeal to philosophers, literary theorists, and art historians alike. Author Biography Benjamin Rutter teaches English at Saint Anns School, Brooklyn, New York. His research interests include German Idealism, contemporary analytic aesthetics, and the philosophy of criticism. This is his first book.
