Professor Heller discusses Hegel's Aesthetics under two aspects: as a diagnosis of the nature of ' Romantic ' art (by which Hegel understands all art after the art of classical Greece) and as a prophecy of the course ' Romantic ' art was bound to take towards ' absolute' art and, in Professor Heller's belief, by turning against itself to become ' anti-art.'

Four talks by Erich Heller
1: The Theology of the Grecian Urn
Erich Heller describes the fascination that drew so many creative minds of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries towards classical Greece. As his central example he chooses Keats's Ode to a Grecian Urn because it displays, in dealing with a Greek object, all the characteristic qualities by which, according to Hegel, ' Romantic ' art differs from ' Classical' art.
