Learning outcomes
The course “Magic Creatures and the Design Theory: Northern vs. Southern Aesthetics in The Long Enlightened Romanticism” aims at focusing its attention on the revolution that Empiricism, and its result, the Enlightenment, initiated in the United Kingdom and its various consequences: aesthetic, literary, political and societal at large. We will examine how Empiricism – and its philosophy (Bacon, Locke, Mandeville, Hume) – paradoxically, initiated the revolutionary revolt of the imagination against innatism. The paradigmatic opposition will be developed through exemplary literary texts, which exemplify the dramatic changes that will be introduced by the Long Enlightened Romanticism.
The course is in English.
