ISBN-13: 978-0-19-285367-7, ISBN: 0-19-285367-8

"But Is It Art? is not only a fine little book but an important big question. Cynthia Freeland's informed and informative essay addresses, in seven pointed chapters, this central poser about modern art today. A multitude of odd, disturbing, weird, pointless-looking pictures, sculptures and things make up the products that we see inside--and out of--our galleries, that make up the art in the art world, and it is difficult to know both how ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-19-923498-1, ISBN: 0-19-923498-1

In this book, leading art philosopher Cynthia Freeland addresses these questions and more. As she shows, portraits have served two fundamental functions throughout the ages. Firstly, they preserve identity, bringing us closer to loved ones who are either absent or dead. And se ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-8133-6702-6, ISBN: 0-8133-6702-6

"Horror is often dismissed as mass art or lowbrow entertainment that produces only short-term thrills. Horror films can be bloody, gory, and disturbing, so some people argue that they have bad moral effects, inciting viewers to imitate cinematic violence or desensitizing them to atrocities. In The Naked and the Undead: Evil and the Appeal of Horror , Cynthia A. Freeland seeks to counter both aesthetic disdain and moral condemnation by fo ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-271-01730-3, ISBN: 0-271-01730-9

"In contrast to many previous feminist interpretations of Aristotle, which found much to disparage and little to salvage in his philosophy, the contributors to this volume enter into new, creative, and subtle dimensions of inquiry about Aristotle. They look more deeply into his influence and question the possibility of escape from it. Feminists recognize that they too philosophize within the tradition founded by Plato and Aristotle and ..."

ISBN-13: 978-0-941193-28-3, ISBN: 0-941193-28-4

"The critique of a moral value system is at the basis of Erewhon. With conceptual imagery and physical installation, the Wilsons transformed Blaffer's large gallery into chambers where moving images were projected and reflected in kaleidoscope sequences. Stagy tableaux of young women in retro gymnastic dress appear alongside, above, and below haunting tracks of what first appears to be an abandoned hospital. Who are these women? Where is ..."






Feminist Interpretations of Aristotle
by Cynthia A. Freeland
Published 2010 by Penn State Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-271-04384-5, ISBN: 0-271-04384-9

"This "re-reading" proposal is similar in its spirit to Rertolt Brecht's famous criticisms of Aristotelian "dramatic" theater and to Brecht's own view of "epic" theater, in its emphasis on producing readings by the viewer, which highlight the social context rather than particular actions of an individual. Brecht's criticisms of Aristotle's view and his own aesthetics of drama can be seem in the following passage: The dramatic theate ..."
