Elements of Criticism are Kames’s most influential work. It is one of the most comprehensive philosophical work on “criticism” in English. Kames sets out his argument that the “science of criticism” is a “rational science”; it is “a subject of reasoning as well as of taste.” By examining human reactions to art and literature, Kames believed that we could enhance our understanding of the human mind, just as an understanding of the mind could enrich our responses to the arts.
