Imitation and Society: The Persistence of Mimesis in the Aesthetics of Burke, Hogarth, and Kant (Literature & Philosophy)

by TomHuhn (Author)

Synopsis

Reconsiders the fate of the doctrine of mimesis in the eighteenth century. This book argues that mimesis, rather than disappearing, instead became a far more pervasive idea in the eighteenth century by becoming submerged within the dynamics of the emerging accounts of judgement and taste.
