Three Lectures on Aesthetic (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Three Lectures on Aesthetic These lectures were delivered at University College, London, in the autumn of 1914, and are printed with hardly any alteration. I must appear unfortunate in having laid so much stress on "feeling, " just when high authorities are expressing a doubt whether the word has any meaning at all (see Croce's Aesthetic, and Professor J. A. Smith's discussion in Aristotelian Proceedings for 1913-1914). I can only say here that the first and main thing which the word suggests to me is the concernment of the whole "body-and-mind" (cp. p. 7, note), as Plato puts it in building up his account of psychical unity on the simple sentence, "The man has a pain in his finger" (Republic, 462 D)' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
