Art in theory. 1815 - 1900

Аннотация

The aim of this book is to provide students of art, art history and aesthetics as well as the interested general reader with a substantial and representative collection of texts, drawn from a wide variety of nineteenth-century sources. Art in Theory 1815—1900 was originally prompted by the welcome extended to Art in Theory 1900-1990, the original edition of our anthology, and it has been designed to serve as a companion vol­ume, with a matching extent and using similar principles of selection and organization. As with the twentieth century, the student of nineteenth-century art faces a potentially be­ wildering diversity of sources.
