It attempts to establish the intrinsic value of the aesthetic at the same time as it demonstrates that focus on the aesthetic does not preclude attention of the urgent questions with which works of art consistently engaged. It argues that attention to the aesthetic does not diminish attention to these larger issues, but in effect increases the power both of art and criticism to engage them fruitfully.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGeorge Levine, \u003cem\u003eEmeritus Professor, Rutgers University\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGeorge Levine is Emeritus Professor at Rutgers University.
