Haecceities: Essentialism, Identity, and Abstraction: Philosophy of History and Culture, cartea 36

Autor Jeffrey Strayer
en Limba Engleză Hardback – feb 2017
Haecceities: Essentialism, Identity, and Abstraction is both an artistic and philosophical examination of the limits of Abstraction in art and of kinds of radical identity that are determined in the identification of those limits. Building on his work Subjects and Objects, Strayer shows how the fundamental conditions of making and apprehending works of art can be used, in concert with language, thought, and perception, as ‘material’ for producing the more Abstract and radical artworks possible. Certain limits of Abstraction and possibilities of radical identity are then identified that are critically and philosophically considered. They prove to be so extreme that the concepts artwork, abstraction, identity, and object in art, philosophy, and philosophy of art, have to be reconsidered.

Recenzii

"Strayer, in Haecceities, gives us a fascinating, extended intellectual meditation on the limits of abstraction in art, and does so with such a breathtaking relentlessness, that it is unlikely that anyone could ever write a more definitive book on the subject." - Phil Jenkins, Marywood University, in: Philosophy in Review 39.2 (2019)
