Course objectives
The aim of the subject is to link information from fine art and literature, leading to understanding of a work of art, his "second life" - interpretations, paraphrases etc. Multilayered context of an work of art, which includes also the reception of viewers, critics, and last but not least orderers and their advisers. Defending particular work of art by reference to the established history of literature, transfer under a certain ideology, etc., however, often proved to be one-dimensional reduction of the visual sense of the work.
