| Summary/Abstract |
No philosopher has held a higher opinion of art than Hegel, yet none has been so profoundly pessimistic about its prospects - despite living in the German golden age of Goethe, Mozart and Schiller. Hegel believed that the artists of classical Greece had found the perfect fusion of content and form, but modern artists faced complicating - and ultimately disabling - questions. This book stands as a passionately argued work that challenged the ability of art to respond to the modern world.
Accompanied by an introduction and a commentary by Michael Inwood, which provides the ideal starting point for one of the most rewarding books every written on the theory of art.
