Description

Starting from a modern understanding of "fascination", this broad-based study in the area of conceptual history develops a formal notion of this aesthetic emotion while considering classical and 18th century theories. Aesthetic fascination is the product of an experience of divergence in processing sensibility and meaning. It does not engender a moment of farewell, but rather stimulates intelligibility.
