Experiment and Metaphysics - Towards a Resolution of the Cosmological Antinomies (Paperback): Edgar Wind Experiment and Metaphysics - Towards a Resolution of the Cosmological Antinomies (Paperback)
Edgar Wind
R1,818 Discovery Miles 18 180 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Edgar Wind was one of the most distinguished art historians and philosophers of the twentieth century. He made crucial contributions to debates on aesthetics and on the interdisciplinary nature of cultural history involving such other leading figures as Ernst Cassirer and Erwin Panofsky. It is not always realised, however, that his early thinking was moulded by a concern with the German philosophical tradition, culminating in the analysis of the meaning and function of scientific experimentation and proof. This first edition in English of Edgar Wind's important work Das Experiment und die Metaphysik: Zur Aufloesung der kosmologischen Antinomien (1934) has been translated by Cyril Edwards, and is prefaced by a new introduction by Matthew Rampley placing Wind's philosophical thinking in context. It is being published to coincide with the opening in 2000 of the Sackler Library in Oxford, which will include a Wind Reading room. (Legenda 2000)

Die Bildsprache Michelangelos (German, Paperback): Edgar Wind Die Bildsprache Michelangelos (German, Paperback)
Edgar Wind; Edited by Pablo Schneider
R756 Discovery Miles 7 560 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

1936 stellte der Kunsthistoriker und Philosoph Edgar Wind sein Manuskript zu Michelangelos Deckenfresken der Sixtinischen Kapelle fertig. Wind begriff den christlichen Erloesungsgedanken als fundamentales Thema des gesamten Raumes und erkannte ein polares Beziehungsgeflecht, welches ihm das Bildprogramm vollstandig erschloss. Methodische Ansatze Aby Warburgs aufnehmend, dessen Mitarbeiter Wind in Hamburg war, analysierte er die Themenwahl Michelangelos. Obwohl fertiggestellt, wurde das Werk nie veroeffentlicht. Es liegt nun erstmals in gedruckter Fassung vor, begleitet von einem ausfuhrlichen Nachwort des Herausgebers.
