Biography
Budd studied mathematics and philosophy at Jesus College, Cambridge. He taught at University College London from 1970 until 2001, and was appointed the Grote Professor of the Philosophy of Mind and Logic from 1998 until his retirement.[1] He now holds an emeritus position.[2]
He is best known for his work in analytic aesthetics. He has published articles on the expressive powers of music, the aesthetic appreciation of nature, and the values of art.
Regarding the expressive powers of (purely instrumental) music, Budd is known for defending a type of resemblance theory, such that music resembles some feature of emotions. However unlike Peter Kivy and Stephen Davies, Budd argues that music resembles the way that emotions feel.
Budd was elected a Fellow of the British Academy in 1995.[1]
