Geoffrey Payzant Papers
Research materials concerning Eduard Hanslick and his intellectual milieu.
The Aesthetic Legacy of Eduard Hanslick
This book addresses the complex conceptual, historical, and philosophical questions posed by Eduard Hanslick’s influential aesthetic treatise, On the Musically Beautiful (1854). The contributions reveal the philosophical foundations and subtleties of his aesthetic approach. The collection features original essays written by leading scholars in philosophical aesthetics and musicology. It covers many of Hanslick’s overarching themes, such as the relationship between beauty and form, between music and emotion, and the role of imagination and performance in music, which have recently gained prominence in Hanslick scholarship. The chapters, divided into five thematic sections, will provide a better scholarly foundation for a deeper understanding of On the Musically Beautiful and its arguments. In bringing together the various approaches and accounts of the different textual, historical, conceptual, and philosophical challenges posed by Hanslick’s aesthetics, The Aesthetic Legacy of Eduard Hanslick will appeal to philosophers of music, historians of aesthetics, musicologists specializing in 19th-century studies, and music theorists working on aesthetic issues.

The essays embrace ways of thinking about Hanslick's writings that go beyond the polarities that have long marked discussion of his work such as form/expression, absolute/program music, objectivity/subjectivity, and formalist/hermeneutic criticism. This approach takes into consideration both Hanslick's important On the Musicall...

Dimensions of Moral Education
This introduction to the philosophy of moral education is rooted in the Socratic method of teaching and learning: to begin to know, you must first recognize what you do not know—or see. Cater shows the value of that myopia (his striking metaphor for partial knowing) over either blindness (hopeless ignorance) or 20/20 vision (intellectual arrogance). All education which is philosophically enriched is seen as an activity, rather than as body of knowledge or a collection of answers. The author seeks to chart a path between authoritarianism and radical scepticism. Applying the same 'critical method' to moral education, Carter first examines the fashionable Values Clarification approach, then c...
