This comprehensive volume presents ten thought-provoking essays that explore the philosophical dimensions of sculpture, offering perspectives from both Anglo-American and European philosophical traditions. While some essays take a historical approach, others are more conceptually oriented. Nonetheless, all of the essays meticulously examine actual sculptural examples in their discussions. The overarching goal of this volume is not merely to apply philosophy to sculpture but rather to critically evaluate the philosophical approaches in conjunction with in-depth analyses of sculptural exemplars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSculpture presents a distinct set of philosophical challenges, particularly in relation to its three-dimensional nature, physicality, temporality, and morality. The authors in this volume address a range of complex philosophical questions pertaining to these characteristics. Furthermore, while the majority of the essays focus on Western sculptural traditions, there are also contributions that feature discussions of sculptural examples from non-Western sources.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePhilosophy of Sculpture is the first comprehensive book dedicated to exploring the philosophical significance of sculpture in the English language. It serves as a valuable resource for advanced students and scholars in aesthetics, art history, history, performance studies, and visual studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 426g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367550349\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104810758394,"sku":"9780367550349","price":43.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_426b74e7-e2a2-4f2f-b4dc-e5190a50678d.jpg?v=1654416666","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/philosophy-of-sculpture-historical-problems-contemporary-approaches-9780367550349","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
