Philosophers & Aesthetics

Does anyone have any works of philosophy that deal with Aesthetics? I’m a student studying philosophy and literature and want my concentration to be in Aesthetics, besides Kant’s Critique of Judgement (which I need to read), is there any other outstanding/classic essays in Aesthetics. Secondary question, why do you think that Aesthetics is one of the least popular branches of philosophy? Art/Sublimity has always been a pretty big deal culturally and something I want to dedicate my life to, especially literature. No Sartre.
