Focusing on various strands of the rich body of Cavell's philosophical work, the authors explore connections between his wide-ranging writings on literature, music, film, opera, autobiography, Wittgenstein, and Austin to contemporary currents in aesthetic thinking. Most centrally, the writings brought together here from an international team of senior, mid-career, and emerging scholars, explore the illuminating power of Cavell's work for our deeper and richer comprehension of the intricate relations between aesthetic and ethical understanding. The chapters show what aesthetic understanding consists of, how such understanding might be articulated in the tradition of Cavell following Wittgenstein and J.L. Austin, and why this mode of human understanding is particularly important. At a time of quickening interest in Cavell and the tradition of which he is a central part and present-day leading exponent, this book offers insight into the deepest contributions of a major American philosopher and the profound role that aesthetic experience can play in the humane understanding of persons, society, and culture. 000940262 650_0 $$aAesthetics. 000940262 7001_ $$aHagberg, Garry L.,$$eeditor 000940262 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319974651 000940262 830_0 $$aPhilosophers in depth. 000940262 852__ $$bebk 000940262 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-97466-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000940262 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:940262$$pGLOBAL_SET 000940262 980__ $$aEBOOK 000940262 980__ $$aBIB 000940262 982__ $$aEbook 000940262 983__ $$aOnline 000940262 994__ $$a92$$bISE
