Course objectives
The second of the three free-going seminars seeks to offer answers to the question of how it develops education through the art of human "cognition." The aesthetic point of departure is the antique concept of mimesis and the ideas derived from it (ideas of nature representation and cognition, concepts of imagination and intuition or self-knowledge). Vouchers to differently (conceived) cognitive theories lead students to find their own emphasis and practice in pedagogical practice.   The course is focused on students' active work with selected texts and discussion in lessons. The texts confront the aesthetic approaches with the concepts of social sciences and philosophy and thus show the unity of seeking knowledge in a plurality of approaches. The aim is to see aspects of the development of thinking and consciousness in didactically thought out pedagogical work.
Learning outcomes
1) The student knows the basic concepts and concepts of (different) approaches to the question examined, both aesthetic (humanistic) and      sociological (scientistic), able to explain and use them (mimesis, cognitivism, imagination, intuition, emblem, symbol) 2) The student can apply this knowledge to specific artistic expressions as well as pedagogical material. 3) The student is able to take his own, experienced and thoughtful opinion on the issue.
Syllabus
  • 1) Cognitivism in aesthetics (from Plato, Aristotle through Adorno and Goodman to Langer); mimesis, fiction (deception) and      representation, imagination, intuition (Croce); 2) interaction with the environment as a general source of knowledge at the level of sensory perception (Eisner, Zuska), the body as a medium      cognition, a key concept of experience (Dewey); 3) Concepts of aesthetic formalism: order, peace and harmony (contingency, heterogeneity, ambivalence and consistency or      discontinuity) form as eidos and morpheus, scheme and Gestalt (Perniola) 5) emblem, language and discourse, symbolic versus character (semiotics versus mythology); 6) artistic fiction as an alternative to reality: ideology, utopia (Mannheim, Bloch, Szacki), utopia and dystopia      (such as projects, category of aesthetics and literary genre) 7) convergence of science and art; art as research; 8) different forms of knowledge and knowledge (sociology of knowledge) degree (information / knowledge / wisdom see Aristotle)
