About this ebook
Author Benedetto Croce presents an insightful treatise on Aesthetics in his book, 'Aesthetic as Science of Expression and General Linguistic'. Croce establishes two forms of knowledge, logical and intuitive, and defines Aesthetics as the science of intuitive knowledge. He claims that intuition and expression are the same, with beauty being a successful expression, and unsuccessful expression not considered an expression at all. The second part of the book explores the history of aesthetics, citing references from Greek to Post-Kantians and German Idealists, and providing ingenious commentary. Croce also delves into language, discussing the individuality of speech, roots, and the relationship between grammar and logic. This insightful book offers a comprehensive understanding of Aesthetics and language, making it a must-read for those interested in these subjects.
