This book considers the experience of enchantment in art.
Considering the essential characteristics, dynamics and conditions
of the experience of enchantment in relation to art, including
liminality, it offers studies of different kinds of artistic
experience and activity, including painting, music, fiction and
poetry, before exploring the possibility of a life oriented to
enchantment as the activity of art itself. With attention to the
complex relationship between wonder in art and the programmatic
disenchantment to which it is often subject, the author draws on
the thought of a diverse range of philosophers, sociological
theorists and artists, to offer an understanding of art through the
idea of enchantment, and enchantment through art. An accessible
study, richly illustrated with experience - both that of the author
and others - Art and Enchantment will appeal to scholars and
students of sociology, anthropology, philosophy, and anyone with
interests in the nature of aesthetic experience.
