This book comprises a collection of high quality papers in
selected topics of Discrete Mathematics, to celebrate the 60th
birthday of Professor Jarik Ne etril. Leading experts have
contributed survey and research papers in the areas of Algebraic
Combinatorics, Combinatorial Number Theory, Game theory, Ramsey
Theory, Graphs and Hypergraphs, Homomorphisms, Graph Colorings and
Graph Embeddings.
This book aims at refocusing critical reflection on thematics in
the arts, a topic that has been neglected recently. The volume is
divided into four section: theoretical essays, applications to
literature, reflections on thematics in music and the visual arts,
and a conclusion.
The notion of aesthetic illusion relates to a number of art forms
and media. Defined as a pleasurable mental state that emerges
during the reception of texts and artefacts, it amounts to the
reader's or viewer's sense of having entered the represented world
while at the same time keeping a distance from it. Aesthetic
Illusion in Literature and the Arts is an in-depth study of the
main questions surrounding this experience of art as reality.
Beginning with an introduction providing historical background to
modern discussions of illusion, it deals with a wide range of
theoretical issues. The collection explores the nature and function
of the aesthetic illusion as well as the role of affect and
emotion, the implications of aesthetic illusion for the theory of
fiction, the variable forms of aesthetic illusion and its
relationship to other components of aesthetic response. Aesthetic
Illusion in Literature and the Arts brings together a team of
scholars from philosophy, literature and art and presents an
interdisciplinary examination of a concept lying at the heart of
contemporary aesthetics.
