Abstract
An excerpt from an experimental series, "Grief Aesthetics" is a lyrical essay on intimacy and writing. The essay participates in the double black study of eroding and composing a new sentence, a new sentence sounded in refusal (of the social pact of writing, of grammar), a new sentence forged in friendship (of thinking with, of writing with). On one level, "Grief Aesthetics" is concerned with inherited grief, the remains of stolen life, the residual desire for romance in contemporary black art. The essay considers the loss of romantic love in conversation with Terence Nance's feature and short films An Oversimplification of Her Beauty and Swimming in Your Skin Again, in conversation with a single recurring line from a poem in Taylor Johnson's Inheritance. At another level, "Grief Aesthetics" is a sort of ars poetica on the process of writing and at this level is preoccupied with the poetic line, the sentence (thinking about sentences), the space in writing, the mundane moments in between the emergence of a line or series of lines and declension as it occurs in the gaps. At every turn "Grief Aesthetics" practices creating in "commonsense" (a shared feeling, a shared aesthetics) among contemporary artists whose works evoke a sense of grief, (dis)placement, loss, loneliness, homelessness, desire, tenderness, friendship, bliss.
"Founded by Vladimir Lenin in 1919 to instigate a world revolution, the Comintern advanced not just the proletarian struggle but also a wide variety of radical causes, including those against imperialism and racism in settings as varied as Ireland, India, the United States, and China. Notoriously, and from the organization's outset, these causes grew ever more subservient to Soviet state interest and Stalinist centralization. Comintern Aesthetics shows how the cultural and political networks emerging from the Comintern have continued, even after its demise in 1943. Tracking these networks through a multiplicity of artistic forms geared towards advancing a common, liberated humanity, this volume captures the failure of a Soviet-centered world revolution, but also its enduring allure in the present."--
The body is a rich object for aesthetic inquiry. We aesthetically assess both our own bodies and those of others, and our felt bodily experiences — as we eat, have sex, and engage in other everyday activities - have aesthetic qualities. The body, whether depicted or actively performing, features centrally in aesthetic experiences of visual art, theatre, dance and sports. 0Body aesthetics can be a source of delight for both the subject and the object of the gaze. But aesthetic consideration of bodies also raises acute ethical questions: the body is deeply intertwined with one's identity and sense of self, and aesthetic assessment of bodies can perpetuate oppression based on race, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, size, and disability. Artistic and media representations shape how we see and engage with bodies, with consequences both personal and political. This volume contains sixteen original essays by contributors in philosophy, sociology, dance, disability theory, critical race studies, feminist theory, medicine, and law. Contributors take on bodily beauty, sexual attractiveness, the role of images in power relations, the distinct aesthetics of disabled bodies, the construction of national identity, the creation of compassion through bodily presence, the role of bodily style in moral comportment, and the somatic aesthetics of racialized police violence

This article focuses on the aesthetics of William Wordsworth, particularly his early poetry. The implications of this investigation are far-reaching. To learn about Wordsworth's aesthetics is to learn about Romanticism, specifically radical Romanticism and the intricate relation it forges between aesthetics and democracy. I begin the article with a general account of radical aesthetics, addressing its nature, scope, and its relation to the normative, the political, and the everyday. Next, I turn to the radical aesthetics of Wordsworth. I then compare radical aesthetics to more traditional accounts of aesthetics, concluding by connecting radical Romantic aesthetics to practical power.
