Abstract

The potentiality of phenomenological aesthetics is enormous, many figures have contributed to it during a time span of over a century, but this is the first work thoroughly to show its breadth, depth, and continuing fecundity. Moritz Geiger, Roman Ingarden, Fritz Kaufmann, Jean-Paul Sartre, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Mikel Dufrenne are the central figures and receive substantial treatment. A score of other influential individuals, including Antonio Banfi, Simone de Beauvoir, Oskar Becker, Jacques Derrida, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Martin Heidegger, Michel Henry, Dietrich von Hildebrand, Maurice Natanson, Nishida Kitaro, Jose Ortega y Gasset, Jan Patocka, Paul Ricoeur, Heinrich Rombach, Max Scheler, Alfred Schutz, Gustav Spet, and France Veber also have entries devoted to them. In addition, there are over two dozen entries on such topics such as dream, empathy, enjoyment, imagination, sensation, on style, ecology, gender, and interculturality, and then on areas including architecture, film, and theater. The introduction includes an extensive sketch of the history of phenomenological investigation in this sub-discipline of philosophy. All entries are written by the best relevant specialists, all the entries have bibliographies, and a selected bibliography for the whole is appended. This handbook will be the foundation for many more decades of investigation.

Abstract

A storm at sea, hanging cliffs, volcano eruptions at night, threatening thunderclouds over a desolate mountain landscape: all these phenomena incite both fear and pleasure, astonishment and fascination. We call them sublime, after the feeling of the sublime. In the eighteenth century the sublime became the exciting alternative to the beautiful. The concept has ancient roots, but branches out into French, British, German, and Dutch cultures. Stemming originally from rhetoric, in the course of the eighteenth century it became an aesthetic, philosophical and literary concept. In this study the history of the sublime is told for the first time in Dutch. This book focuses on Dutch contributions on the sublime, in the light of the international history of the concept of the sublime. From the earliest translations to the original ideas of Johannes Kinker and Willem Bilderdijk: the Dutch sublime reflects both the entwinement with the European Enlightenment and the specific nature of Dutch culture in the long eighteenth century.

Abstract

Narziss ist eine viel genannte Schlüsselfigur der literarischen Dekadenz. Doch welche theoretischen Überlegungen, Analogien und Umkehrschlüsse zwischen Mythologie, Ästhetik und Psychologie verbinden sich mit und in ihm? Es lässt sich hinsichtlich des westeuropäischen Theaters der Jahrhundertwende und der Zeit zwischen den Weltkriegen davon ausgehen und erkunden, wie Künstlerfiguren dieser Epoche eine Aura und eine Charakterisierung eingeräumt werden, die sich an der sozialen Realität orientieren - oder von dieser mitunter stark divergieren. Die im 19. Jahrhundert noch weit verbreiteten Gattungen des Künstlerdramas und -romans weichen zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts zudem neuen Formen und Spielarten von "Gesamtkunstwerken" und der Selbst-Inszenierung. Den gemeinhin bekannten "Narzissten" wie Oscar Wilde oder André Gide stehen Dramatiker und Opernkomponisten wie J. M. Barrie oder Franz Schreker gegenüber, die Künstlerleben zwischen Selbsthass und -zerstörung auf die Bühne bringen.

Abstract

Jacques Lennep a l'intuition de son Musée de l'homme en 1974 quand il encadre un gardien du musée des Beaux-Arts de Bruxelles qui l'emploie. Au début de 1976, il consacre une première exposition à l'une de ces personnes qui font de leur existence un espace de création. D'autres suivront, jusqu'à aujourd'hui, et parmi eux, un retraité, un collectionneur, une fermière, un fleuriste, un ingénieur, un supporter. Pour Lennep, le Musée de l'homme est le champ d'expérimentation de l'esthétique relationnelle qu'il a formulée dès 1972 et dont il définit les principes dans sa 'théorie des trois RE': la RElation structurale, la RElation/récit et la RElation sociale. Il vise à mettre l'homme au centre de l'art et des relations qu'il suppose, à s'interroger sur la nature et le rôle de l'art aujourd'hui. Forgée dans les glorieuses années 70, cette démarche pluridisciplinaire fait appel à la vidéo, à la performance, à l'installation, au texte, et depuis quelques années à Internet avec le blog "On est tous artistes."

Abstract

Representation is a concern crucial to the sciences and the arts alike. Scientists devote substantial time to devising and exploring representations of all kinds. From photographs and computer-generated images to diagrams, charts, and graphs; from scale models to abstract theories, representations are ubiquitous in, and central to, science. Likewise, after spending much of the twentieth century in proverbial exile as abstraction and Formalist aesthetics reigned supreme, representation has returned with a vengeance to contemporary visual art. Representational photography, video and ever-evolving forms of new media now figure prominently in the globalized art world, while this "return of the real" has re-energized problems of representation in the traditional media of painting and sculpture. If it ever really left, representation in the arts is certainly back. Central as they are to science and art, these representational concerns have been perceived as different in kind and as objects of separate intellectual traditions. Scientific modeling and theorizing have been topics of heated debate in twentieth century philosophy of science in the analytic tradition, while representation of the real and ideal has never moved far from the core humanist concerns of historians of Western art. Yet, both of these traditions have recently arrived at a similar impasse. Thinking about representation has polarized into oppositions between mimesis and convention. Advocates of mimesis understand some notion of mimicry (or similarity, resemblance or imitation) as the core of representation: something represents something else if, and only if, the former mimics the latter in some relevant way. Such mimetic views stand in stark contrast to conventionalist accounts of representation, which see voluntary and arbitrary stipulation as the core of representation. Occasional exceptions only serve to prove the rule that mimesis and convention govern current thinking about representation in both analytic philosophy of science and studies of visual art. This conjunction can hardly be dismissed as a matter of mere coincidence. In fact, researchers in philosophy of science and the history of art have increasingly found themselves trespassing into the domain of the other community, pilfering ideas and approaches to representation. Cognizant of the limitations of the accounts of representation available within the field, philosophers of science have begun to look outward toward the rich traditions of thinking about representation in the visual and literary arts. Simultaneously, scholars in art history and affiliated fields like visual studies have come to see images generated in scientific contexts as not merely interesting illustrations derived from "high art", but as sophisticated visualization techniques that dynamically challenge our received conceptions of representation and aesthetics. "Beyond Mimesis and Convention: Representation in Art and Science" is motivated by the conviction that we students of the sciences and arts are best served by confronting our mutual impasse and by recognizing the shared concerns that have necessitated our covert acts of kleptomania. Drawing leading contributors from the philosophy of science, the philosophy of literature, art history and visual studies, our volume takes its brief from our title. That is, these essays aim to put the evidence of science and of art to work in thinking about representation by offering third (or fourth, or fifth) ways beyond mimesis and convention. In so doing, our contributors explore a range of topics-fictionalism, exemplification, neuroaesthetics, approximate truth-that build upon and depart from ongoing conversations in philosophy of science and studies of visual art in ways that will be of interest to both interpretive communities. To put these contributions into context, the remainder of this introduction aims to survey how our communities have discretely arrived at a place wherein the perhaps-surprising collaboration between philosophy of science and art history has become not only salubrious, but a matter of necessity. .

Abstract

Looking for lines" describes the search that started in the eighteenth century by art historians, critics and esthetical philosophers after the role and use of lines in art and art history. In this search for the line the misunderstanding came to light that the current ideas held of the use and function of the line did not correspond with the approaches in the past. As for instance that the status of an art work must be measured by the qualities of its compostion by the abstract use of line and colour. The author treats the role and influences of this way of thinking on the role of esthetical judgements in the past three centuries, with special attention to mannerism.
