Conception Of Symbolic Truth In Art eBook

This book is an in-depth study of the object of reflection in the activity of creating the artwork and the activity of having an aesthetic experience, as well as the epistemological and ontological conditions under which this type of activity takes place. What does the artist express, or communicate, in the activity of creating the artwork? What is the nature of reflection in this activity? What kind of mind reflects on the object of reflection? Similarly, what is object of reflection in the process of aesthetic perception? What kind of object does the perceiver contemplate in the process of aesthetic perception? How does this object come to life in the aesthetic experience? In order to answer these questions, the book relies on Malgorzata Cazarnocka's conception of symbolic truth.
