# The Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism (the-journal-of-aesthetics-and-art-criticism)
## Journal positioning
The Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism, published for the American Society for
Aesthetics, is a leading venue for philosophical aesthetics and the criticism of the arts.
It publishes work on the nature of art, aesthetic experience and value, and the philosophy of
the particular arts — visual art, music, literature, film, dance, architecture, and beyond —
across analytic and continental approaches. Its defining expectation is a **rigorous
philosophical argument** about art or the aesthetic: a clearly stated thesis, a defended line
of reasoning, and fair engagement with the strongest objections and the relevant literature.
It is distinct from `music-theory-spectrum`, whose contribution is technical music analysis,
from `the-philosophical-review`, which is general analytic philosophy without an aesthetic
center, and from `october`/`art-history`, which are art-historical and critical-theoretical
