The journal is published to promote the study, research, and discussion of the fine arts and related types of experience from a philosophical standpoint. Appearing quarterly, it publishes lively and thoughtful articles on a broad range of topics from the nature of aesthetic judgement and the principles of art criticism to foundational issues concerning the visual arts, literature, music, dance, film, and architecture. A substantial reviews section offers searching analyses of major new work in the field.  It is essential reading for philosophers, art historians.  It is the journal of the British Society of Aesthetics, and many subscribers are members of the society.

Journal of the History of Collections

Editor    Arthur MacGregor, Ashmolean Museum, Oxford             Assistant Editor    Kate heard, Ashmolean Museum, Oxford

"Required reading for everyone who is seriously interested in collecting"                       British Book News

"Contributes at a scholarly level over a wide field of knowledge as well as uniquely    to the aims, methods, and history of collecting."                                                                                 Geoffrey Lewis, Times Higher Education Supplement

The Journal of the History of Collections is dedicated to providing the clearest insight into all aspects of collecting activity. For centuries collecting has been the pursuit of princes and apothecaries, scholars and amateurs alike. Only recently, however, has the study of collections and their collectors become the subject of great multidisciplinary interest. The range of the journal embraces the contents of collections, the processes which initiated their formation, and the circumstances of the collectors themselves. As well as publishing original papers, it includes listings of forthcoming events, conferences, and reviews of relevant publications and exhibitions, making it the most comprehensive source available on a subject of increasing interest and study, essential to academics in the field of art history, intellectual and cultural history, the history of technology, museum curators, as well as art and antique dealers
