Aesthetic Creation

ISBN: 9780199261871 出版年：2007 页码：203 Zangwill, Nick Oxford University Press

What is the purpose of art? What drives us to make it? Why do we value it? Nick Zangwill argues that the function of art is to have certain aesthetic properties in virtue of its non-aesthetic properties, and this function arises because of the artist's insight into the nature of these dependence relations and her intention to bring them about.
