About the Book
This book offers a comprehensive exploration of Indian aesthetics and Western theories of art and beauty. Divided into two parts, the volume covers a wide range of intellectual traditions and their respective contributions to the field of aesthetic theory.
-
Part 1 focuses on Indian aesthetics, examining the core concepts of rasa (emotion) and dhvani (suggestion), and delving into the worldview of art that has shaped Indian artistic expression for centuries.
-
Part 2 traces the evolution of Western theories of art and beauty, beginning with the ideas of ancient Greek philosophers and continuing through the views of contemporary thinkers, exploring the evolving discourse on the nature of art.
This book is an invaluable resource for students and scholars of philosophy, aesthetics, and Fine Arts, offering a rich comparison between Eastern and Western perspectives on the transformative and emotive power of art.
