Hume's Aesthetic Theory examines the neglected area of the development of aesthetics in empiricist thinking, exploring the link between the empiricist background of aesthetics in the eighteenth century and the work of David Hume.
This is a major contribution to our understanding of Hume's general philosophy and provides fresh insights into the history of aesthetics.
'Hume's Aesthetic Theory is an immensely stimulating book ... is rich and complex. Original and thorough, it opens new avenues to the understanding of Hume's philosophy.'
'Townsend, in this refreshing and enlightening book, renews and retells Hume's aesthetics and provides us with food for thought (or sense) in the process.' - Tijdschrift Voor Filosofie
