Caracteristici
Original claim and theory centered around the deployment of the concept of techne, which is both explored philosophically and utilized as the basis for a mode of adoptable critical practice
Notă biografică

Recenzii
Each of the diverse chapters makes for highly interesting (and for an analytic philosopher refreshingly different) reading . [For] analytic philosophers of aesthetics, who have for the most part neglected the topic of creativity, this book is interesting and creative in both style and content.
From the standpoint of techne theory, Kant's most radical insight concerned the limitation of the creative power of individual genius, which cannot account for the emergence of the novelty or the formal evolution of the artwork. Building on this critical insight, Staten creates a highly original phenomenological investigation into the technical components of "art-making," remaining grounded in material processes and what art and literary theory can (and cannot) tell us about them.
In this learned, original, important, and always lively new study, Henry Staten moves today's heated and often sterile debate about aesthetic form to a new place-a place that is also (and in the best sense), an old place, newly inhabited. Staten rethinks Plato's and Aristotle's concepts of eidos and techne in three ways: first, by bringing searching attention of a scholarly and critical kind to tensions and contradictions within the founding works themselves; second, by making those works respond to the very developments that they sponsored in both Romantic and modernist works; and third, by coordinating ancient Greek concepts of art, form, medium, making, and doing, with a posthumanist framework that reunites knowledge and know-how, theory and practice, eidos and hyle, and vates and poietes. Anyone with any interest in the idea of form (and in the formation of ideas) should read this book. It changes the game we've been playing.
