A survey of modern philosophical accounts of aesthetic
experience and of the ways that literary figures have
adapted these theories to suit their purposes. Our concern
will be with the way the aesthetic presents endless
provocation for philosophy, and with the way theory becomes
a spur to literary invention.

Coleridge, Wordsworth, Keats, Arnold, Nietzsche, Pater,
Bergson, Hulme, Pound, Dewey, Barthes, Barth.
