This book introduces and defends a new account of aesthetic disinterestedness. Elaborating upon the work of Kant, Schopenhauer, and Bullough, Hilgers claims that artworks typically address our senses as well as our imagination, and require us to adopt a disinterested attitude towards what they show or present.
