Robert Michael Brain

The Pulse of Modernism (eBook, ePUB)

Physiological Aesthetics in Fin-de-Siècle Europe

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Robert Brain traces the origins of artistic modernism to specific technologies of perception developed in late-nineteenth-century laboratories. Brain argues that the thriving fin-de-siècle field of physiological aesthetics, which sought physiological explanations for the capacity to appreciate beauty and art, changed the way poets, artists, and musicians worked and brought a dramatic transformation to the idea of art itself.
