About this product
Product Information
Art and the Absolute is a literary and philosophical investigation into the meaning of art and its claims to truth. Exploring in particular the writings of Kant and those who followed after, including Fichte, Schelling, Hegel, Schopenhauer, and Nietzsche, Paul Gordon contends that art solves the problem of how one can know the absolute in non-conceptual, non-discursive terms...The idea of art's inherent relation to the absolute, first explicitly rendered by Kant, is examined in major works during the thirty-three year period from 1790 to 1823. The first and last chapters, on Plato and Nietzsche respectively, deal with precursors and post-cursors of this idea. Gordon shows and seeks to readdress the lack of attention to this idea after Hegel, as well as in contemporary reassessments of this period. Art and the Absolute will be of interest to students and scholars interested in exploring aesthetics from both a literary and philosophical perspective.

Reviews
"German idealism, in the boldness of its textual and systematic design, in the innovative persistence of its investigations, and in its profound, multinational repercussions, has, over the past four decades, served contemporary critical theory as a primary 'scene of interpretation.' The critical community is in Paul Gordon's considerable debt for the fresh and conclusive update delivered by Art asthe Absolute on the constellation of concepts and constructs crystallizing around the Romantic figure of the artist, and on the liberties, privileges, and restrictions attending this complex and ambiguous figure. The theoretical acumen and erudition that Gordon had to derive in order to synthesize this study are prodigious; yet in its directness of approach and presentation, this current status-report is accessible to advanced scholars and motivated undergraduates alike. Gordon's fresh readings of Kant, Fichte, Schelling, Hegel, and Schopenhauer, among others, will reside at the theoretical cutting-edge for some time to come." -- Henry Sussman, Visiting Professor of Germanic Languages and Literatures, Yale University, USA, and author of Playful Intelligence and The Aesthetic Contract, German idealism, in the boldness of its textual and systematic design, in the innovative persistence of its investigations, and in its profound, multinational repercussions, has, over the past four decades, served contemporary critical theory as a primary 'scene of interpretation.'
