Abstract

CONTEMPORARY THEORIES OF DEPICTION

The debate on the nature of depiction is one of the most lively and persistent in analytic aesthetics. Esthetica aims to introduce this flourishing subdomain of the philosophy of art to audiences in Belgium and The Netherlands. At the same time, it also aims to make a significant contribution to that debate.
