Sommario/riassunto |
|
This text approaches the subject of education and development on the basis that free universal primary education is a human right, which should be accorded to all children forthwith. This must be provided as |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a package of benefits, encompassing universal primary education, basic health care and adequate nutrition. The analysis allows for the fact that policies for education are also subject to the influence of broader social philosophies and epistomologies than those solely of the educational system. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Aesthetics and Painting introduces and opens up current debates and ideas in the aesthetics of painting. At the book's center is an investigation of the complex relationship between what a painting depicts and the means by which it is depicted. The book looks at: how |
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and why painting may be distinguished from other art forms; the relationship between the painted surface and the depicted subject; the "rules of representation" specific to painting; abstract art and nonrepresentational painting; the most recent technological and aesthetic developments and their implications; the role of the artist-and that of the spectator. A sophisticated treatment of major ideas in art and philosophy, Aesthetics and Painting remains highly readable throughout, offering a clear and coherent account of the nature of painting as an art form |
