Product Description
(GOODMAN) GKOGKAS, N. Nelson Goodman and the Case for a Kalological Aesthetics. Palgrave Macmillan. 2008.
Hardback, 184pp., NEW, Epistemology delivers truths, metaphysics offers realities. In this book, aesthetics responds philosophically to the question about what one is to make of such truths and realities. How to live with them, or how to weave them together in the fabric of the self. In this sense, any aesthetics about art, beauty, and the like is translatable into a ‘kalology’ about degrees of meaning and layers of identity. The starting point for the book is Nelson Goodman’s theory of symbols. A theory with modest aspirations that can only serve as an initial step, but a step in the right direction.
