"Dissertation on the Progress of the Fine Arts" by John Robert Scott is a study that embodies what we can now see as a final development in his century's deep concern to understand why the greatest art had somehow not been forthcoming in what it as often claimed was the greatest century. The main interest lies in Scott's notions of the kind of society needed to produce major art, and beyond hoping to make it a reality in his own time. He chooses to write almost entirely about the fine arts. Some important personalities included in this book include William III (England) Henry IV (France), Cardinal Ximenes, Cardinal Richelieu, Augustus Cæsar, Lewis XIV, etc.

Once the US was the only country in the world to offer a doctorate for studio artists, however the PhD in fine art disappeared after pressures established the MFA as the terminal degree for visual artists. Subsequently, the PhD in fine art emerged in the UK and is now offered by approximately 40 universities. Today the doctorate is offered in most English-speaking nations, much of the EU, and countries such as China and Brazil. Using historical, political, and social frameworks, this book investigates the evolution of the fine art doctorate in the UK, what the concept of a PhD means to practicing artists from the US, and why this degree disappeared in the US when it is so vigorously embraced in the UK and other countries. Data collected through in-depth interviews examine the perspectives of professional artists in the US who teach graduate level fine art. These interviews disclose conflicting attitudes toward this advanced degree and reveal the possibilities and challenges of developing a potential doctorate in studio art in the US.
