| Subjects: | PHILOSOPHY: Theory of art |
The author offers a look at the history, ethics, and aesthetics of art from the perspective of the specific philosophical concepts of transcendence, metaphysics, subjectivity, and conditionality. Contemporary and conversant with the major issues that have affected 20th-century art (including existentialism, phenomenology, semiotics, and Jungian psychology), this volume questions many philosophical concepts used to justify art, and views their meaning within the perspective of philosophical development.
