Philosophy, Art(theory), and Literature (Part 1), Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The following essays examine the intricate relationship between philosophy and the arts. On the one hand, they demonstrate how philosophy has influenced the arts. For example, they show how Husserl's and Merleau-Ponty's reformulation of the affective sphere of the body led to a disruption of the metaphorical order of the body inherent in artistic representation. On the other hand, they reveal how the analysis of fictional characters can lead to a revision of philosophical ideas, such as Husserl's concept of presentification. The complex interplay between philosophy and literature is also discussed in depth. Finally, ethical and axiological problems, in theory and praxis, that arise in both philosophy and art(theory), are explored in more detail. Together, these contributions offer a broader and deeper understanding of the interplay between art and philosophy, two fields that have often been at odds.
