Abstract

This chapter urges us to consider the philosophy of perception to be a guide to aesthetics. More precisely, its claim is that many, maybe even most traditional problems in aesthetics are in fact about the philosophy of perception and can, as a result, be fruitfully addressed with the help of the conceptual apparatus of the philosophy of perception. This claim may sound provocative, but after qualifying what he means by aesthetics (to be contrasted with philosophy of art) and by philosophy of perception, Nanay argues it may in fact be easier to accept.
