I am a philosopher with a doctorate and a writer living in Philadelphia. I want to dig deep in this podcast, going beyond the superficial level of daily events. Along with Thoreau, I want to search for the principle behind the myriad instances and applications. All news is gossip, ideas are what drive history.

In this episode, I discuss how Hume deals with the problem of subjectivism in artistic appreciation. If beauty is just a feeling, and not a property of objects, how can anyone be wrong about their judgment of art? Hume provides five characteristics of the true judge of art: delicacy, practice, comparison, freedom from prejudice, and good sense.
