Polish philosopher, historian of philosophy, historian of art, aesthetician, and author of works in ethics.

Tatarkiewicz was a comprehensive scientist. In his works he included issues in music, poetry and art, as well as aesthetics and history of arts. He is mostly renoved, however, as an ethician and the author of 3-volume History of Philosophy.

He elaborated on semantic analysis of happiness and gave careful psychological considerations to the feelings of both happy and unhappy men.

Through his books, Tatarkiewicz educated generations of Polish philosophers, estheticians and art historians, as well as a multitude of interested laymen.

Resulta curioso que, a pesar de ser la parte de la Historia del Arte que más me apasiona, haya disfrutado algo menos este libro dedicado a la estética medieval. Esta claro que Tatarkiewicz es un erudito en la materia, y su vistazo, aunque general, al medioevo es, en parte, bastante acertado (aunque deba centrarse, por temas de concreción, en el ámbito casi exclusivamente europeo).
Pero el libro tiene algo que no esperaba encontrarme, y menos en una edición como son las de Akal, por lo general bastante cuidadas, y es que está plagado de erratas: de maquetación, de transcripción, ortográficas, etc, lo cual ha hecho que el disfrute de este conjunto de ensayos se haya visto bastante mermado.
