Art, Emotion and Ethics

Více o knize

The book explores the relationship between art and morality, asserting that artworks with moral defects are inherently aesthetically flawed. Berys Gaut posits that moral goodness embodies a form of beauty and that art can serve as a medium for moral education. He argues for the validity of allowing moral considerations to influence emotional responses to art, suggesting that the ethical dimensions of a work can significantly impact its aesthetic value.
