What is ‘Taste’? Twelve texts on beauty and its enemies - PDF and EPUB

Twelve texts on beauty and taste, 1755 to 1909, each printed complete as

published, in one designed reading edition:

Winckelmann's Greeks, Hume's standard of taste, Burke's anatomy of taste;

Kant's four moments of the beautiful and Hegel's system; Ruskin's lamp of

memory and his nature of Gothic; Morris on the architecture of a civilisation;

Pater's sentence that all art aspires to the condition of music; Wilde's decay

of lying; Fry's imaginative life; and Marinetti's declaration of war on all of

it.

- Every text complete as published, in a public-domain text or translation.

- Every translator named on the page facing the text, with dates, wherever

 there is a name to give; the Futurist manifesto's English is uncredited, and

 the page says so.

- Kant's own notes and Ruskin's own notes printed; the translators' annotations

 omitted, counted and disclosed.

- A designed PDF (129 × 198 mm, EB Garamond, four coloured parts) and a

 reflowable EPUB that reads well on phone, Kindle, Kobo and Apple Books.

- A correction ledger: every mechanical change to every text, listed.

- The four texts the argument also needs — Baudelaire, Nietzsche, Loos,

 Benjamin — named in the preface with the dates they clear, rather than

 silently missing.
