Learning objectives

The course aims to provide the conceptual, methodological and cultural foundations for analyzing and interpreting aesthetic problems in the strict sense (sensitive perception and knowledge) and works of art in a broader sense. The course aims to make people understand the conceptual logics and structures, developing the ability to use precise and adequate language; moreover, it aims at allowing the student to acquire the competences to confront himself with the sensitive perception and with the artistic world so as to be able to independently form a critical judgment and be able to express it in an appropriate language.

Prerequisites and basic notions

No prerequisites

Program

Art and Death Drive between Aesthetics and Psychoanalysis
If a vitalistic paradigm has prevailed in the history of aesthetics, the course will try to show how art and death drive are instead deeply intertwined. We will do so starting from a comparison between aesthetics and psychoanalysis. In particular, we will show the affinities between Wilhelm Worringer's theoretical proposal in "Abstraction and Empathy" and Freud's in "Beyond the Pleasure Principle".
