    • Expressiveness as a Property of the Music Itself
    • In addition to artist-audience communication, I claim there are concepts of artistic communication of value-laden messages, of factual information, and of mental states. I offer an account of the musical expressiveness involved in the musical communication of mental states in Saam Trivedi, "Expressiveness as a Property of the Music Itself," Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism 59 (2001): 411-20

    • Compare Eva Schaper, "Taste, Sublimity, and Genius," in The Cambridge Companion to Kant, ed. Paul Guyer (Cambridge, 1992), 371-72: "He who has taste... has the ability to respond with immediate and unclouded pleasure to beauty in nature and art, and then communicate this pleasure to others who can share it," italics added. Unlike Schaper, though, my stress is more on communicating and sharing something more cognitive, to wit, a correct experiential understanding of the work, which in turn may be pleasurable, both in aesthetic terms, insofar as an aesthetic understanding is acquired, and also in humanistic terms insofar as there is sharing involved

    • I am continually puzzled by the insistence of many that seeing art as involving communication involves seeing it as some sort of language, a view which I deny. Taking music, for example, even if music is language-like in involving meaning, understanding, conventions, rules, communication (between artist and audience, and also communication of mental states via expressiveness and arousal, and also communication of information about itself when understood), there are significant differences between music and language concerning truth, reference, predication, description, syntax, translatability, and so on, as pointed out by many, including Stephen Davies, Musical Meaning and Expression (Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1994)

    • Similar arguments could be made about the other arts. An instance of this insistence is found in Dabney Townsend, An Introduction to Aesthetics (Oxford: Blackwell, 1997), 101-6, 176. Townsend is also opposed to the "participatory aesthetics" of what I have called audience-audience communication, pp. 138-41. He claims that the metaphysics of participation is questionable, and so must be the aesthetic theory based on it. I think Townsend is mistaken in thinking that participatory aesthetics must make some sort of substantive claim about knowledge of the other, a kind of ineffable, experiential knowledge. Rather, participatory aesthetics could be understood as making only a more modest psychological claim about how art can afford an experience of unity with other people, in the sense I try to explain above

    • Defining Art Historically
    • Ithaca: Cornell University Press
    • This answer draws on the historical definition of art advanced by Jerrold Levinson, "Defining Art Historically," in Music, Art, and Metaphysics (Ithaca: Cornell University Press, 1990). Given the problem that the historical definition faces with the "ur-arts," namely, the very first artworks such as cave-paintings and carved arrowheads, I wonder if it might not be an advance to propose some kind of disjunctive account of art that disjoins the historical view and some sort of aesthetic property view that says artworks are artifacts that possess certain aesthetic properties. Thus, the ur-arts are artworks because they are artifacts with certain aesthetic properties and that is what makes them artworks. In contrast, revolutionary artworks that lack obvious aesthetic properties, such as Duchamp's Fountain and John Cage's 4′33," are artworks because they relate to earlier artworks by repudiating them

    • I believe a move like this is made in Robert Stecker's Artworks (University Park: Pennsylvania State Press, 1997). Stecker, however, disjoins art-historical views not with an aesthetic property-based view as I suggest, but instead he disjoins the art-historical view and artworks fulfilling certain functions
