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.
