Susanne Katherina Langer (née Knauth) (1895-1985) was an American philosopher of art, a follower of Ernst Cassirer. She is better known for her 1942 book Philosophy inside the Up to date Key, where she articulates & defends a theory of the relationship between music & the emotions. Based on data from Langer, pieces of music represent a composer's noesis of the morphological forms of emotional life. She was innate around Manhattan. She exposed at Radcliffe College, and completed the Harvard University doctorate in 1926. She taught at Radcliffe, Wellesley College, Smith College, and Columbia University. From either 1952 to 1962 she was prof of philosophy at Connecticut College.
