The essays collected in this volume examine the multidisciplinary and multicultural nature of the subject of aesthetics. The contributed articles address the vexed relation of the arts and criticism to contemporary social, political, and cultural issues of ethnicity, race, class, and gender in the United States today.

Accordingly, this volume provides a serious assessment of aesthetic theory and practices within the arts and letters of our multicultural society.
