What is The Muses (Meridian: Crossing Aesthetics) about?

This Book, By One Of The Most Challenging Contemporary Thinkers, Begins With An Essay That Introduces The Principal Concern Sustained In The Four Succeeding Ones: Why Are There Several Arts And Not Just One? This Question Focuses On The Point Of Maximal Tension Between The Philosophical Tradition And Contemporary Thinking About The Arts: The Relation Between The Plurality Of The Human Senses--to Which The Plurality Of The Arts Has Most Frequently Been Referred--and Sense Or Meaning In General. Throughout The Five Essays, Nancy's Argument Hinges On The Culminating Formulation Of This Relation In Hegel's Aesthetics And The Phenomenology Of Spirit--art As The Sensible Presentation Of The Idea. Demonstrating Once Again His Renowned Ability As A Reader Of Hegel, Nancy Scrupulously And Generously Restores Hegel's Historical Argument Concerning Art As A Thing Of The Past, As That Which Is Negated By The Dialectic Of Spirit In The Passage From Aesthetic Religion To Revealed Religion To Philosophy. --publisher Description.
