“For this volume, 27 members of the HAA, who serve aesthetics, contributed original articles, participating in theoretical inquiries beyond the classical definition of aesthetics as a theory of art and its traditional positioning as a theory of the Beautiful.

The aim is to determine a new identification of aesthetics in the changing landscape of art and the mutations in perceptions or ideological uses of it today.

Furthermore, to assign it a public role in the context of contemporary cultural, environmental, technological, and other challenges.” (K. D.-K., from the presentation on the back cover of the book)
