The Continental Aesthetics Reader is a rich and intellectually uncompromising anthology. It fills an important gap in the literature.’ Timothy R. Quigley, New School for Social Research, USA
‘There is a clear need for a reader in continental aesthetics and Clive Cazeaux has assembled the readings with great care.’ Michael Newman, Slade School of Art, London, UK
‘Cazeaux's brief introductions to the selections are insightful and cogent. This volume will serve as a much-needed source for considering the range and depth of modern aesthetic theory.’ Tom Huhn, Wesleyan University, USA
‘... a balanced and judicious selection of the most important texts from two centuries of European ruminations on art and its meaning... a welcome gift.’ Martin Jay, University of California, Berkeley, USA
