The course Basic Concepts of Aesthetics I. provides a basic insight into the character and history of aesthetic thinking. The basic terms in the course title are ideas that linked the historical and conceptual level of aesthetic explorations to the famous Polish aesthetician Władysław Tatarkiewicz. Following his example, we use the concepts of art, beauty, mimesis, form, creativity, aesthetic experience - but also taste - as a probe into the multilayered development of aesthetics as a scientific discipline. In the course Basic Concepts of Aesthetics I, the attention is paid to the traditional concepts of beauty, art and mimesis, which were an important part of philosophical thinking since antiquity and at the same time formed the basic pillars of aesthetics as a separate discipline in the 18th century. The lecture is always based on a pre-theoretical understanding of these concepts or ideas, followed by their conceptual and historical analysis.
Students will acquire a basic, introductory overview of constitutive problems, ideas and concepts of modern and classical aesthetics.
