Henry Home - Elements of Criticism - 1817

Kames argues that criticism of art and literature is a rational science as well as a matter of taste. In volume 1 he explores the nature and causes of the emotions and passions. In volume 2 he explores the principles of rhetoric and literary appreciation, and discusses the formation of our standards of taste. This copy shows significant wear to the covers, including a missing spine, making it an ideal candidate for restoration. The pages exhibit noticeable foxing and discolouration. Shipped from France
