À propos de cette revue

Focus and Scope

Aesthetica Preprint is the four-month open access journal of the Società Italiana di Estetica (SIE). The journal aims at giving an account of the aesthetic research in Italy, but it offers also relevant contributions from foreign scholars. It presents miscellaneous numbers composed of essays by various authors, single researches of a wider scope, working documents, editions of small classics, and exceptionally proceedings of conferences and seminars. The essays, all subjected to peer review, are written in Italian or English and accompanied by abstracts in English. Founded in 1983 by Luigi Russo as an instrument of the International Center of Aesthetics Studies, it has been published by Mimesis since 2017.
