Rating: 0 out of 5 stars

About this ebook
Black is Beautiful identifies and explores the most significant philosophical issues that emerge from the aesthetic dimensions of black life, providing a long-overdue synthesis and the first extended philosophical treatment of this crucial subject.
- The first extended philosophical treatment of an important subject that has been almost entirely neglected by philosophical aesthetics and philosophy of art
- Takes an important step in assembling black aesthetics as an object of philosophical study
- Unites two areas of scholarship for the first time – philosophical aesthetics and black cultural theory, dissolving the dilemma of either studying philosophy, or studying black expressive culture
- Brings a wide range of fields into conversation with one another– from visual culture studies and art history to analytic philosophy to musicology – producing mutually illuminating approaches that challenge some of the basic suppositions of each
- Well-balanced, up-to-date, and beautifully written as well as inventive and insightful
- Winner of The American Society of Aesthetics Outstanding Monograph Prize 2017
