Heavily represented sections of contemporary philosophy subscribe
to the notion of "embodiment". However promising this pragmatic
turn of events may be, it remains limited in that it interprets the
world as a projection of the cognizing "I". By contrast, Image Acts
focuses on the counterforce of the form of images. The book
subdivides this sphere into three parts: imitation, substitution,
and the pure effect of the form. All three parts are contemplated
with examples from antiquity through to the present and the
iconoclastic controversies of our times. From this reconstruction
of the image act springs the element of a new philosophy of
affordance.
