A holistic and systematic analysis of Ernst Gombrich as theorist
Offers the first holistic and systematic analysis of Gombrich's
theoretical ideas and interrogation of their sources Examines both
the history of art and architecture and its current practice
Arranges all of Gombrich's sideas howing the aptitude and validity
of its theoretical load Enables a new understanding of the nature
of Art History and its presuppositions Captures and retains
Gombrich's appeal and humour, and his straightforward style without
losing depth This is the first English translation of Gombrich: una
teor a del arte, by Joaqu n Lorda, originally published in 1991.
Lorda was considered to be one of Gombrich's best students and this
book presents an extensive, expansive and holistic analysis of
Gombrich's thought. It is structured around a set of key ideas and
themes: Science, Joke, Game and Rhetoric. Lorda provides in-depth
analysis of Gombrich's engagement with figures such as Huizinga,
Freud, Hegel, and Popper. While there has been extensive secondary
literature on Gombrich, this is the first book to provide a
systematic analysis of his ideas and theoretical frameworks, taking
into account the entirety of his writings. This major work of
scholarship sheds new light on Gombrich as a thinker and turns
Gombrich's ideas into a workable theory of art that can be used as
an instrument to examine both the history of art and architecture
and its current practice.
