ISBN: 9789004331501 / Angielski / Twarda / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9781138257887 / Angielski / Miękka / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

The ten essays written for this volume address the experience of art in early modern Europe and approach it from a variety of methodological perspectives: concerns range from the relation between its perceptual and significative dimensions to the ways in which its discursive formation anticipates but does not...
