Synopsis
Elements of Criticism is Kames's most influential work. When it first appeared, in 1762, it was the most comprehensive philosophical work on "criticism" in English, and it was published in five editions during Kames's lifetime and another forty editions over the next century. In America, Elements of Criticism served as a standard text for college students of English.
Liberty Fund's edition of Elements of Criticism is the first modern edition of one of Kames's most influential works. In Elements, Kames sets out his argument that the "science of criticism" is a "rational science;" it is "a subject of reasoning as well as of taste." Volume one explores the nature and causes of the emotions and passions. Volume two delineates principles of rhetoric and literary appreciation, ending with a discussion of the formation of a standard of taste. Kames illustrated both volumes with a vast range of examples from classical literature and the arts of his own day.
Henry Home, Lord Kames (1696-1782) was one of the leaders of the Scottish Enlightenment.
Peter Jones is Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh.

À propos de l'auteur
Henry Home, Lord Kames (1696-1782) was one of the leaders of the Scottish Enlightenment. He was notable for his social influence and his service as a judge in the supreme courts of Scotland. His works were central to the expression of 'enlightenment' and 'natural law' in the Scottish context. Kames mentored Adam Smith, and his friends included David Hume and James Boswell.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. This is the first modern edition of one of Kamess most influential works. When it first appeared, in 1762, it was the most comprehensive philosophical work on 'criticism' in English, and was published in five editions during Kamess lifetime and another forty editions over the next century. In America, 'Elements of Criticism' served as a standard text for college students of English, not least because the work is richly illustrated with examples from classical literature and the arts of Kamess day. In Elements, Kames sets out his argument that the 'science of criticism' is a 'rational science'; it is 'a subject of reasoning as well as of taste'. By examining human reactions to art and literature, Kames believed that we could enhance our understanding of the human mind, just as an understanding of the mind could enrich our responses to the arts. Volume one explores the nature and causes of the emotions and passions. Volume two delineates principles of rhetoric and literary appreciation, ending with a discussion of the formation of a standard of taste. Kames illustrated both volumes with a vast range of examples from classical literature and the arts of his own day.With this publication, Liberty Fund makes a modern version of this influential work available for the first time. The Liberty Fund edition is based on the text of the sixth edition of 1785, which was the last authorised by Kames himself. Features a philosophical work on 'criticism' in English by Kames, which first appeared in 1762. Volume one explores the nature and causes of the emotions and passions.
