Art and Knowledge argues that the experience of art is rewarding because it can be an important source of knowledge about ourselves, our relation to each other and to the world. Young reflects on the essence of art and argues that it ought to provide insight as well as pleasure. He argues that all the arts, including music, are importantly representational.
