Course objectives
The aim of the course is to present the newest concepts in aesthetics and philosophy of arts to students. The attention will be paid to the historical process in course of which the aesthetics, as a philosophical theory of perception, actually became a philosophy or sociology of arts, bringing the new methodological strategies for the meaningful interpretation of the works of art. Upon completion of this course, the student will achieve an ability to link the particular knowledge of concrete art sciences (mainly of musicology and theory of visual arts) with the actual aesthetical theories and reflections from the early modernism till to the poststructuralist approaches to art.
