Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).

Modernity, subjectivity, liberalism, and nationalism -- The symbol and the aesthetic sphere -- Schiller's aesthetic state -- Symbol, state, and Clerisy: the aesthetic politics of Coleridge -- The best self and the private self: Matthew Arnold on culture and the state -- Aesthetic kingship and queenship: Ruskin on the state and the home -- The aesthetic and political spheres in contemporary theory: Adorno and Habermas.

This ambitious study, first published in 1999, argues that our conception of the aesthetic sphere emerged during the era of British and German Romanticism from conflicts between competing models of the liberal state and the cultural nation. The aesthetic sphere is thus centrally connected to 'aesthetic statism', which is the theoretical project of reconciling conflicts in the political sphere by appealing to the unity of the symbol. David Kaiser traces the trajectory of aesthetic statism from Schiller and Coleridge, through Arnold, Mill and Ruskin, to Adorno and Habermas. He analyses how the concept of aesthetic autonomy shifts from being a supplement to the political sphere to an end in itself; this shift lies behind the problems that contemporary literary theory has faced in its attempts to connect the aesthetic and political spheres. Finally, he suggests that we rethink the aesthetic sphere in order to regain that connection.
