Constructing an Arendtian theory of aesthetics from the philosopher's fragmentary writings on art and perception, Sjöholm begins a vibrant new chapter in Arendt scholarship that expands her relevance for contemporary philosophers. Arendt wrote thoughtfully about the role of sensibility and aesthetic judgment in political life and on the power of art to enrich human experience. Sjöholm draws a clear line from Arendt's consideration of these subjects to her reflections on aesthetic encounters and works of art mentioned in her published writings and stored among her memorabilia. This delicate effort allows Sjöholm to revisit Arendt's political concepts of freedom, plurality, and judgment from an aesthetic point of view and incorporate Arendt's insight into current discussions of literature, music, theater, and visual art. Though Arendt did not explicitly outline an aesthetics, Sjöholm's work substantively incorporates her perspective into contemporary reckonings with radical politics and their relationship to art. 410 0$aColumbia themes in philosophy, social criticism, and the arts. 606 $aAesthetics 606 $aArt$xPhilosophy 615 0$aAesthetics. 615 0$aArt$xPhilosophy. 676 $a111/.85092 700 $aSjo?holm$b Cecilia$0619807 702 $aHamm$b Lisa 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811217903321 996 $aHow to see things$93965109 997 $aUNINA 999 $p$30.24$u05/17/2017$5Relig
