Description
Reviews
There can be no doubt that this book is a classic. * British Journal of Aesthetics *
His rich background...ideally equipped him for the task of mapping the wilderness of avant-garde art and aesthetics. Indeed, Poggioli tackles his vast subject systemically, by integrating the aesthetic approach in a psychological, social, and historical range. * Comparative Literature Studies *
Poggioli's study is a magnificent achievement. In both his topic and his manner of treatment, he has demonstrated that the criticism of art is indistinguishable from the criticism of life. * Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism *
