{"product_id":"eco-aesthetics-malcolm-miles-9781472529107","title":"Eco-Aesthetics: Art, Literature and Architecture in a Period of Climate Change","description":"By moving beyond traditional aesthetic categories (beauty, the sublime, the religious), \u003ci\u003eEco-Aesthetics\u003c\/i\u003e takes an inter-disciplinary approach bridging the arts, humanities and social sciences and explores what aesthetics might mean in the 21st century. It is one in a series of new, radical aesthetics promoting debate, confronting convention and formulating alternative ways of thinking about art practice. There is no doubt that the social and environmental spheres are interconnected but can art and artists really make a difference to the global environmental crisis? Can art practice meaningfully contribute to the development of sustainable lifestyles? Malcolm Miles explores the strands of eco-art, eco-aesthetics and contemporary aesthetic theories, offering timely critiques of consumerism and globalisation and, ultimately, offers a possible formulation of an engaged eco-aesthetic for the early 21st century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Malcolm Miles\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1472529103\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781472529107\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/03\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.60w x 0.80d","brand":"Malcolm Miles","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48153674875135,"sku":"9781472529107","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d3a5a24a-4a4d-4e48-99d3-73d66fb0e7fd.jpg?v=1770785070","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/eco-aesthetics-malcolm-miles-9781472529107","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
