Learning outcomes
The student has a general overview of philosophy of culture and art, which are also needed in cultural and art critique.
Contents
The section presents the fundamental questions of cultural philosophy and of philosophy of art, as well as the principal historical formulations of aesthetics. It presents the man-made world both as the culture that forms the human being and as the culture that is formed by him/her, and examines the historical constitution of meaning and sense. Philosophy of art examines art's place in a culture, and studies the fundamental concepts of aesthetics (e.g. beauty, work, artist, creation, critique).
