Author(s): Maja Piotrowska
Subject(s): Philosophy
Published by: Wydawnictwa Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego
Keywords: aesthetic experience; late modernity; shock
Summary/Abstract: The texts attempts to present shortly the assumptions of the wider philosophical project where the main role is played by the peculiar way of “atomised” aesthetic sensual experience (e.g. of sound, colour, corporeality). The experience is seen as a repeatable, reflective exercise that gets the chance to teach how to adapt the “shock of the late modernity” i.e. the shock caused by the conditions of life in the present which is poorly integrated, highly changeable and deprived of the stable ontological basis.
