The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries witnessed a change in the
perception of the arts and of philosophy. In the arts this
transition occurred around 1800, with, for instance, the breakdown
of Vitruvianism in architecture, while in philosophy the
foundationalism of which Descartes and Spinoza were paradigmatic
representatives, which presumed that philosophy and the sciences
possessed a method of ensuring the demonstration of truths, was
undermined by the idea, asserted by Nietzsche and Wittgenstein,
that there exist alternative styles of enquiry among which a choice
is open. The essays in this book examine the circumstances,
features, and consequences of this historical transition, exploring
in particular new aspects and instances of the inter-relatedness of
content and its formal representation in both the arts and
philosophy.
