La estética en España después de la transición

2010, Daimon

Abstract

After Franco's death the number of Spanish philosophers specialized in aesthetics has significantly increased. However Spanish aesthetics has not yet achieved an adequate level of internalization. The article aims to describe the pluralistic scene of Aesthetics in Spain. In order to do so the author differentiates three main areas of work among Spanish aestheticians: first, on classical philosophical topics, such as representation, beauty or aesthetic emotion, second, on the philosophy of art in general and modern art in particular, and third, on the theoretical analysis and critical explanation of new trends in contemporary art.
