Abstract

This volume explores some of the more important of Hans-Georg Gadamer's extensive writings on art and literature. These essays focus particularly on the challenge issued by modern painting and literature to our customary ideas of art, and in turn revitalise our understanding of it. They are readily accessible to beginning students and general readers.

Abstract

Ce volume représente un pari : il s’agit d’interroger la pluralité de l’esthétique sans la réduire à la variabilité des point de vue sur les œuvres de l’art. C’est donc l’idée esthétique elle-même dont on entend ici évoquer les visées contraires. Pour cela, on a choisi d’engager une démarche qui serait elle-même plurielle : aborder le principe de création ou l’expérience de beauté selon un angle conceptuel à chaque fois différent, qui permette de croiser, autour du rapport à l’œuvre d’art, le rejet ou l’invocation de la subjectivité, la référence au possible ou à l’imaginaire, la mesure de l’échec ou la loi de l’exaltation, le suspens ou le réancrage de l'historicité : bref, la loi de l’œuvre et la recherche d’une règle. À travers Kant ou Valéry, entre Benjamin et Kafka, de l’idée musicale à l’expérience poétique, le paradoxe de l’art décline ainsi ses variantes. Il se prolonge dans la démarche d’une jeune artiste faisant courir, de texte en texte, la trace minimaliste d’un mode sériel d’exploration.

Abstract

Ever since the eighteenth century, when Kant opened the floodgates of subjectivism in aesthetics, common men and philosophers alike have despaired of finding a basis for judgments about beauty. This book provides a comprehensive theory that encompasses beauty in art and nature, as well as intellectual, utilitarian, and moral beauty. The author argues that the beauty of objects can be reduced to the beauty of properties of those objects, which in turn can be understood in terms of "properties of qualitative degree." The theory, developed first with respect to color, is then extended to include all sensory and non-sensory qualities. The author shows how the theory explicates and resolves disagreements about what is beautiful and discusses its relevance to the traditional notions of harmony and sublimity. His is an objectivist theory of beauty, and it enables him, in conclusion, to demonstrate why we enjoy perceiving beauty.Originally published in 1975.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Abstract

Few philosophers agree about what it is for something to be art but most or all agree that art must be somehow intention-dependent. Mag Uidhir shows that this requirement has radical implications for the nature of art and of art forms, for the ontology of art, and for issues about authorship.

Abstract

The subject of the book is the organic link that connects the two thematic sides that define the field of Aesthetics: the theory of perception and reflection on the arts. The apparent redundancy contained in the title intends to underline how the interweaving between perception and the work of art is structural and organic, thus recalling the theoretical urgency of this problem for an effective understanding of the dynamics of the meaning of art as a "symbolic form" in which the relationship between mind and world is embodied in an exemplary way. The volume is divided into three parts. The first presents nuclei of reflection arising from contemporary perspectives "outside the chorus". The second deals with different frameworks of perception theory.
