The Author, Art, and the Market: Rereading the History of Aesthetics
Martha Woodmansee
Analyzing the rise of art in the 18th century, this treatise demonstrates how painting, sculpture and literature were not regarded as valuable art forms before the emergence of a new bourgeois culture. The author reveals how Romantic poets and philosophers invented "art" as we know it today.
