SUMMARY
Though displaced from their central or dominant
position in the
aesthetician's field of concern, the con-
cepts
of beauty have continued to be of interest, and
indeed have been the
subject of numerous books and
smaller studies, especially in English,
French, German,
and Italian. Philosophers have carefully explicated
the
distinctions, and the logical connections, among these
concepts,
and have proposed solutions to the philo-
sophical problems about beauty. To a lesser extent,
other
researchers have investigated the empirical
problems about beauty. But it
has not lost its capacity,
evident from the beginning of aesthetic inquiry,
to
tease and puzzle thought.
