The Philosophy of Art
F. W. J. Schelling
Edited, Translated, and with an Introduction by Douglas W. Stott
Foreword by David Simpson
The first English translation of a classic text in aesthetics based on the precepts of German Idealism. Schelling systematically treats various forms of art—including music, painting, sculpture, narrative, and poetry—to present a philosophical disclosure of the idea or essence of art itself, an essence that transcends the actual work in history.
