Description

Formerly philosophy was the preserve of PhDs and the intellectually precocious, until now. In this half-day course we will disinter a little of philosophy's hermetic meaning as we tackle the question: But is it art? Using lectures and discussion, we will consider some of the philosophical theories of art (aesthetics), with Clive Bell, R.G. Collingwood and George Dickie.
