Thinking about Science, Reflecting on Art: Bringing Aesthetics and Philosophy of Science Together
Editat de Otávio Bueno, George Darby, Steven French, Dean Ricklesen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mai 2023
- Does representation function in the same way in science and in art?
- What important characteristics do scientific models share with literary fictions?
- What is the difference between interpretation in the sciences and in the arts?
- Can there be a science of aesthetics?
- In what ways can aesthetics and philosophy of science be integrated?
Aiming to develop the interconnections between the philosophy of science and the philosophy of art more broadly and more deeply than ever before, this volume not only explores scientific representation by comparison with fiction but extends the scope of interaction to include metaphysical and other questions around methodology in mainstream philosophy of science, including the aims of science, the characterisation of scientific understanding, and the nature of observation, as well as drawing detailed comparisons between specific examples in both art and the sciences.

"Thinking about Science, Reflecting on Art is a remarkable collection, which opens a new and much needed conversation between the fields of aesthetics and philosophy of science. It stands out as a unique and ambitious publication for the diversity of approaches and perspectives it brings together, and for the attention it pays to the methodological issues arising from the recent interactions between these two fields. Its deliberate aim to cross the boundary between two branches of philosophy that have, so far, inhabited different academic spaces will contribute to reorient key philosophical debates in a genuinely interdisciplinary direction, and promote a collaborative methodological attitude that will shape the future of philosophy more broadly".
