R. G. Collingwood's disquisition is a pioneering academic work on the philosophy of art.
The Principles of Art was first published in 1923. This prolific philosophical essay argues various theories regarding the doctrine of art, the meaning and uses of the word itself, and the psychological theories behind artistic practices. R. G. Collingwood addresses Plato's Republic, which is often thought of as a renunciation of art, and he suggests that the work is nothing of the sort.
Read & Co. Books is proudly republishing this volume for artists, art critics, and philosophical thinkers, complete with a specially-commissioned biography of the author.
