Description: Taste and the Household: The Domestic Aesthetic and Moral Reasoning [Paperback] McCracken, Janet Product Overview By exploring the connections between aesthetic sensitivity and moral character, this book connects them both to the larger cultural malaise. It locates the relationship between human nature and moral reasoning in what the author calls "domestic aesthetic skill," bringing together moral and aesthetic judgment about little things that are close to home--food, clothing, and furniture.
