How Pictures Complete Us: The Beautiful, the Sublime, and the Divine
ISBN: 9780804798464 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Despite the wonders of the digital world, people still go in record numbers to view drawings and paintings in galleries. Why? What is the magic that pictures work on us? This book provides a provocative explanation, arguing that some pictures have special kinds of beauty and sublimity that offer aesthetic transcendence. They take us imaginatively beyond our finite limits and even invoke a sense of the divine. Such aesthetic transcendence forges a relationship with the ultimate and completes us psychologically. Philosophers and theologians sometimes account for this as an effect of art, but...

Meanings of Abstract Art: Between Nature and Theory
ISBN: 9780415899932 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Traditional art is based on conventions of resemblance between the work and that which it is a representation "of". Abstract art, in contrast, either adopts alternative modes of visual representation or reconfigures mimetic convention. This book explores the relation of abstract art to nature (taking nature in the broadest sense-the world of recognisable objects, creatures, organisms, processes, and states of affairs). Abstract art takes many different forms, but there are shared key structural features centered on two basic relations to nature. The first abstracts from nature, to give...

The Kantian Aesthetic: From Knowledge to the Avant-Garde
ISBN: 9780199687527 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Kantian Aesthetic explains the kind of perceptual knowledge involved in aesthetic judgments. It does so by linking Kant's aesthetics to a critically upgraded account of his theory of knowledge. This upgraded theory emphasizes those conceptual and imaginative structures which Kant terms, respectively, "categories" and "schemata." By describing examples of aesthetic judgment, it is shown that these judgments must involve categories and fundamental schemata (even though Kant himself, and most commentators after him, have not fully appreciated the fact). It is argued, in turn, that this shows...

The Transhistorical Image: Philosophizing Art and Its History
ISBN: 9781107410459 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Paul Crowther seeks to establish a set of a priori conditions of pictorial art and, more generally, of visual art. He explores systematic alternatives and discusses ways of bringing recent modes of visual art (such as photomontage and digital image transformation) within their scope. Crowther's treatment of these important aesthetic questions is of interest to philosophers of art and art historians.

Art and Embodiment: From Aesthetics to Self-Consciousness
ISBN: 9780199244973 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In his Critical Aesthetics and Postmodernism, Paul Crowther argued that art and aesthetic experiences have the capacity to humanize. In Art and Embodiment he develops this theme in much greater depth, arguing that art can bridge the gap between philosophy's traditional striving for generality and completeness, and the concreteness and contingency of humanity's basic relation to the world. As the key element in his theory, he proposes an ecological definition of art. His strategy involves first mapping out and analyzing the logical boundaries and ontological structures of the aesthetic domain....

As a philosophical approach, phenomenology is concerned with structure in how phenomena are experienced.

Philosophy After Postmodernism: Civilized Values and the Scope of Knowledge
ISBN: 9780415310369 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Formulating a new approach to philosophy which, instead of simply rejecting postmodern thought, tries to assimilate some of its main features, Paul Crowther identifies conceptual links between value, knowledge, personal identity and civilization understood as a process of cumulative advance.
To establish these links, Crowther deploys a mode of analytic philosophy influenced by Cassirer. This approach recontextualizes precisely those aspects of postmodernism which appear, superficially, to be fuel for the relativist fire. This method also enables him to illuminate some of the great...

Aesthetics, Imagination and the Unity of Experience
ISBN: 9781138263482 / Angielski / Miękka / 2024 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This is the first book to gather together R. K. Elliott's important essays on aesthetics. These essays put forward a number of common themes that together constitute a unified approach to aesthetics. A theory of imagination is developed and ideas concerning the practice of art criticism are explored before the relevance of aesthetics for ethics is discussed. Throughout his writing Elliott combines analytic rigour with sympathy for ideas in continental philosophy. He values subjectivity but his analytic stance prevents this from falling into mere personal opinion; he is also able to show how...

From Luminous Hot Stars to Starburst Galaxies
ISBN: 9780521791342 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 330 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Before exploding as supernovae, luminous hot stars live out their lives of a few million years with prodigious outputs of radiation and stellar winds, dramatically affecting both their evolution and environments. This book offers a detailed introduction to the astrophysics of these massive stars and how they contribute to the evolution of galaxies and starburst phenomena. HII galaxies, their connection to starburst galaxies, and the contribution of starburst phenomena to galaxy evolution through superwinds, are thoroughly explored. The authors conclude with the wider cosmological...

Repression and Resistance in Communist Europe
ISBN: 9780415306690 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book explores the role of coercion in the relationship between the citizens and regimes of communist Eastern Europe. Looking in detail at Soviet collectivisation in 1928-34, the Hungarian Uprising of 1956 and the Polish Solidarity Movement of 1980-84, it shows how the system excluded channels to enable popular grievances to be translated into collective opposition; how this lessened the amount of popular protest, affected the nature of such protest as did occur and entrenched the dominance of state over society.
