Description

Explore a new dimension of art theory with Aesthetics After Metaphysics: From Mimesis to Metaphor. Part of the Routledge Studies in Contemporary Philosophy series, this book examines a critical area of art that has been overlooked by major philosophical traditions. From Plato to Hegel and Adorno, much of philosophical thought has focused on mimesis and the metaphysics of truth. De Beistegui introduces the concept of the hypersensible to describe an artistic dimension that exists outside the traditional space between the sensible and the supersensible. By moving beyond the confines of metaphysics, this work argues that the operation of art is best understood through metaphor. This text provides a fresh perspective for students and scholars of philosophy and art theory, shifting the focus from classical imitation to a more complex understanding of how art functions.
