Review Quotes: "How do we think and judge beyond established rules? The contributions of this volume articulate with great verve the intellectual and political implications of this core question that has been animating German aesthetics since the 18th century. This is an important book for anybody interested in art and its power to imagine alternative modes of thinking, living, and governing." - Andreas Gailus, Associate Professor of Germanic Languages and Literatures, University of Michigan, USA
