"To my knowledge, Lamarque and Olsen’s anthology is the most
comprehensive and judiciously put-together collection of its kind
to date. It includes all of the authors one can think of on
anyone’s list of the major contributors to the late
twentieth-century analytic tradition in aesthetics and philosophy
of art. It is both deep and broad. If you are going to a desert
island, and baggage space is limited, this is definitely the
collection on the subject you want to take with you. The period
covered by Lamarque and Olsen's anthology is one of the richest in
the history of the discipline: a veritable golden age of
philosophical speculation on art and the aesthetic that, I am glad
to say, is not over yet, and to which this volume will be a major
contribution." Peter Kivy, Rutgers University
