Early Modern Aesthetics provides a concise and accessible guide to the history and development of aesthetics in the early modern period. The book demonstrates how aesthetics became part of the discipline of philosophy during the seventeenth and eighteenth centureis. J. Colin McQuillan shows how philosophers concerned with art and beauty positioned themseleves with respect to the ancients and the moderns, what they took the object of aesthetics to be, and how they thought the arts were to be distinguished and classified. The book explores the controversies that arose among philosophers with different views on all these issues. This understanding of how these commitments shaped early modern aesthetics not only illuminates the peculiar ways in which early modern philosophers discussed matters of taste and the system of the arts they proposed, but also sheds light on the development of early modern philosophy, specifically the way it incorporated subjects at the periphery of philosophical discourse and how it tried to make ts treatment of these subjects scientific.
