Philosophy Now | April-May 2021
The oldest known art dates back around 65,000 years, so clearly art touches something very central to us as human beings. Questions about art also connect with other philosophical questions to do with perception and representation. Issue 143 asks: What is art? How does art move us? What motivates artists, and should we care about their ethics?
Also in this issue: articles on GE Moore’s ethics; on alienation; on Camus and The Plague; on ‘flash photography’; and as a special treat, an original translation of the surprising last will and testament of the Marquis de Sade. Plus book reviews, film review, and a Brief Life of Hannah Arendt.
