ISBN: 9788822262295
Description: Firenze: Olschki, 2012. 24cm., pbk., 202pp., 3 color plates. Summary: The reception of Aristotle’s reflections on the pleasure of images is described through the works of art theorists, philosophers, scholars and artists. It forms a bizarre gallery of wild and despicable animals, of monsters and demons, of dying men and corpses. On the basis of Aristotle’s Poetics it is possible to find the reason of art in pleasure and to discuss its limits: moral principles, the sense of disgust, the sublime.
