Description
About the Author Mysore Hiriyanna (1871-1950) was a well-known Sanskrit professor and an authority on Indian philosophy and aesthetics. Intimately familiar with the classics of Sanskrit and English, Hiriyanna devoted his life to the cause of making clear and accessible the wisdom of ancient India. He set the standard for scholars writing about Indian subjects in English. All through his life he remained a quiet, humble, disciplined, and altruistic person who primarily sought to better himself as a human being. Read more

Best exposition on experiencing art, poetry and how they can provide a fulfilling experience!
Mysore Hiriyanna's writings are the gold standard on whatever he wrote. And the Art Experience is one of his best works. Must read essays here include the two-part Art Experience, Indian Aesthetics (this is an excellent introduction to the topic), What to Expect of Poetry, etc. Such clear and concise exposition is rarely found in today's writings by literary critics and aestheticians.
