Reviews
"The piece is skillfully organized, and Levinson's grasp of the details of the various topics is unsurpassed. The aesthetics community has much for which to thank Jerrold Levinson. His papers are required reading on a number of topics in aesthetics, and he is renowned as a generous commentator and critic."--Derek Matravers, The Open University, Milton Keynes "Levinson has achieved his intention to provide a collection from which both the professional philosopher and the enthusiastic non-professional can derive instruction and pleasure. In doing so, he has also succeeded in filling a sizeable gap in a burgeoning book market."--British Journal of Aesthetics, This Handbook is a timely response to a growing interest in aesthetics ... it covers a good deal of ground, provides much interesting information and abounds in interesting quotations., "This Handbook is a timely response to a growing interest in aesthetics ... it covers a good deal of ground, provides much interesting information and abounds in interesting quotations." --Peter Rickman, Philosophy Now "The piece is skillfully organized, and Levinson's grasp of the details of the various topics is unsurpassed. The aesthetics community has much for which to thank Jerrold Levinson. His papers are required reading on a number of topics in aesthetics, and he is renowned as a generous commentator and critic."--Derek Matravers, The Open University, Milton Keynes "Levinson has achieved his intention to provide a collection from which both the professional philosopher and the enthusiastic non-professional can derive instruction and pleasure. In doing so, he has also succeeded in filling a sizeable gap in a burgeoning book market."--British Journal of Aesthetics, The majestic new Oxford edition of Johnson's "Lives of the Poets", edited by the eminent eighteenth-century scholar Roger Lonsdale, testifies to the rarity of what Johnson achieved. . . . This new, four-volume edition of the Lives helps to situate Johnson's work in a broader and deeper eighteenth-century context than ever before, shedding light on every facet of their composition and reception. But those lucky enough to own this expensive edition, or at least to study it in alibrary, will find that reading Johnson in a twenty-first century context is just as important and fruitful., The complex financial, editorial, and textual problems of the venture are laid out in splendid detail in the new edition of The Lives of the Most Eminent English Poets; With Critical Observations on Their Works edited by Roger Lonsdale. This is the first full scholarly treatment of the work since the 1905 edition of George Birkbeck Hill, long out-of-print and long superseded by more recent scholarship. The price of the set will make prospective buyers feel like victims of'confiscation's vultures', in Johnson's phrase; and yet, the sumptuous text with its silken ribbon-markers, the superb (and beautifully written) introduction, and the voluminous, and facinating, commentary make it seem almost justified., "The piece is skillfully organized, and Levinson's grasp of the details of the various topics is unsurpassed.
