On Criticism -- Noël Carroll
Although most readers of this book will be philosophers, scholars of the arts and humanities, and critics by profession, anybody who has ever evaluated a work of art and reflected on that evaluation and those of others will profit from a reading. Carroll sets out his arguments with clarity and without jargon.
Carroll claims that the main business of criticism is not so much interpretation or contextualization as evaluation. Critics can interpret, contextualize, analyze, describe , and classify a work, but these activities are critical only insofar as they provide reasons for an evaluation of a work. This evaluation turns on an assessment of whether in any given artwork the artist has achieved the artistic aims they intended.
Carroll also argues for the objectivity of critical judgements; he is particularly concerned to dismantle the understanding of aesthetic evaluation as being centrally concerned with beauty.
With regard to Carroll's main claim, a large literature on intentionalism in aesthetics exists. I will note here that although he does refute those critiques inspired by a crude empiricism, he does not give adequate consideration to the difficulty of giving an account of what specific intentions might be; these difficulties might include problems between distinguishing conscious and unconscious intentions, the presence of multiple and possibly irreconcilable intentions, and the possibility that intentions might change during the creation of an artwork. These difficulties are compounded in the case of artworks that are the creation of popular culture industries, where the presence of multiple creators and commercial incentives complicate talk of a straightforward "artist's intention". This relative neglect is odd in view of the author's background in the aesthetics and criticism of film.
As far as Carroll's claims regarding the objectivity of criticism is concerned, much will ride on Carroll's arguments that the conventions of particular genres can provide principles which in turn can ground reasons for declaring an artwork a successful or otherwise example of that genre. Although much more can be said on the topic, Carroll does here offer a way of getting a discussion of evaluation beyond the bare affirmation of 'it's all just subjective preference!"
Not a new book -- it came out in 2009 - but still worth your time if you have even the slightest interest in the arts.

Big update to ‘Form & Number: A History of Mathematical Beauty’: the PDFs are now *tagged* (plus various minor improvements).
A #TaggedPDF contains hidden extra semantic information to assist screen-reading software etc., including alt text for diagrams+images (in the case of ‘F&N’, 552 pieces of alt text were required, some quite lengthy).
The new version is available (#OpenAccess as always) at: https://archive.org/details/cain_formandnumber_ebook_large
Feedback from users of screen readers would be very welcome!
Creating this version has been possible because of the ongoing LaTeX tagging project [https://latex3.github.io/tagging-project/] (thank you to the LaTeX team and other contributors!). I have been adapting my own #LuaLaTeX styles [https://codeberg.org/ajcain/minos] to use the new interfaces.

Yves-Marie André's (1675–1764) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yves_Marie_André] ‘Essay on Beauty’ (‘Essai sur le beau’, 1741) was an important work of 18th-century aesthetics. In the article on beauty in the 2nd volume (1752) of the ‘Encylopédie’, Denis Diderot praised André's system as the best he knew, elevating it above the work of Plato, Augustine, Wolff, Crousaz, Shaftesbury.
In 2010, I released a #CreativeCommons-licensed annotated English translation [https://archive.org/details/EssayOnBeauty]. I have just made an update: the PDF is now an accessible #TaggedPDF.
(The LaTeX tagging system is still under development [https://latex3.github.io/tagging-project/], but I have been adapting my LaTeX styles to be tagging-compatible.)
Although I was a much less practised typographer 16 years ago, I have left the overall design of ‘Essay on Beauty’ unchanged, contenting myself with minor improvements offered by an updated version of the Baskervald font, ensuring that line-end hyphenations follow the OUP standard, and a few other localized improvements.

Hot Take: We need another means of determining Artistic Merit (I know, I know, whole can o' worms) besides sales, and artists (of all media: books, visual, music, etc) should receive some kind of UBI instead of relying exclusively on sales to perpetuate and facilitate the production of their art.
(As a musician I acknowledge this gets complicated when you factor in things like touring, but I'll allow "performance" or "exhibition" as a separate category from "creation," so ticket sales can help fund the whole production team.)
I support copyright in terms of "intellectual property," but not in terms of sales and distribution of media.
We need to divorce the creation AND consumption of art from money.

Some people won’t argue that you “should agree” with their opinion of what is beautiful. That doesn’t make it any less unacceptable for you to argue that they should agree with yours.
To hell with the eye of the “Me”-holder.
