Abstract

This publication strives to inform the reader about the main concepts of environmental aesthetics, the movement which in the latter half of the 20th century helped to shift the focus of aesthetic theory towards nature and other environments. The first half of the book delineates the aesthetics of nature from the by then predominant aesthetics of art, and then introduces and critically assesses the two main trends in the environmental aesthetics, the cognitive and the non-cognitive one. The second part delves deeper into underlying issues of this movement – the question what exactly an environment is, how to assess it, and indeed what is the essence of this assessment or aesthetic experience. Last, the appendix lists the aesthetic concepts of current natural scientists and presents several environmental-aesthetic topics in the context of the landscape character assessment in the Czech Republic.

Abstract

Though philosopher Alfred North Whitehead did not dedicate any books or articles specifically to aesthetics, aesthetic motifs nonetheless permeate his entire body of work. Despite this, aestheticians have devoted little attention to Whitehead. In this book, four scholars of aesthetics provide another angle from which Whiteheadian aesthetics might be reconstructed. Paying special attention to the notion of aesthetic experience, the authors analyse abstraction versus concreteness, immediacy versus mediation, and aesthetic contextualism versus aesthetic isolationism. The concepts of creativity and rhythm are crucial to their interpretation of Whiteheadian aesthetics. Using these concepts, the book interprets the motif of the processes by which experience is harmonized, the sensation of the quality of the whole, and directedness towards novelty.
