Aesthetics after Darwin: The Multiple Origins and Functions of the Arts - Evolution, Cognition, and the Arts
Winfried Menninghaus
Darwin famously proposed that sexual competition and courtship is (or at least was) the driving force of ""art"" production not only in animals, but also in humans. This book argues that Darwin's hypothesis is strongly informed both by classical rhetoric and by English and German philosophical aesthetics.
