An Introduction to the Vendôme Circle Book Club

The Vendôme Circle Book Club will be one of the centrepieces of our online gatherings and provide us with a way to explore some of the great texts that have a unique and privileged bearing on aesthetics and the question of beauty and taste. We will explore a wealth of works—philosophical, literary, poetic, biographical, historical or epistolary—from Antiquity to today that highlight the development of aesthetics within the Western canon.
