Following an introduction that traces the historical debates surrounding the concept of representation, Part One focuses on representation and language, epistemology, politics and history, sacrificial rites, possible world and postmodernism. Part Two applies current theories to painting, photography, literature, music, dance, and film. Writings highlight the vital role representation plays in the formation and appreciation of major genres of art. This work will appeal to art philosophy and aesthetics scholars and to cultural studies and linguistic scholars. Rather than advocate certain theories, the essays illustrate the inherent complexities of representation. 606 $aRepresentation (Philosophy) 606 $aArt$xPhilosophy 606 $aAesthetics, Modern 615 0$aRepresentation (Philosophy) 615 0$aArt$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aAesthetics, Modern. 676 $a111/.85 701 $aSukla$b Ananta Charana$f1942-$01803910 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957453203321 996 $aArt and representation$94351701 997 $aUNINA
