```todoist name: Today filter: "Today | Overdue" ``` [[performance aesthetics]] ## Notes on Vincenzo's Talk - The aspectuality of literary works - Mental images are not normally taken into account in literary works. - is there a place for imagery in literary appreciation? - minimal vs competent engagement. - V wants to argue that mental images are part of competent engagement - emotional responses, moral reasoning - propositional imagination is considered to be part of competent engagement. - Calvino's invisible cities. - why can't this be explained with propositional imagination? - style suggestion: make more of the fact that philosophers disagree with [[common sense]] about the type of imagination involved. - spatial imagery. - Objectual imagery - motor imagery + phenomenal presence. - blind people, paralysed people? Do they have an impoverished appreciation of literature? does propositional imagination fare better here? - in what way is mental imagery a *property* of the work? 'promotes' - 'aspectual stratum' - 'parts of a work to appearance in triggering mental imagery' - ## Notes on Gaia's Talk - "main difference" –history studies events, art history studies (typically still available) objects - attribution - recognition of the content? I don't [[know what]] that means? - science and objects and materials –isn't this the same with archeology? - 'great personalities' -events typically involve [[more than]] one person, art often involves just one, or at least a small number. - 'Look for the good in every period' - why did you start with the differences and continue with the similarities? - this structure is weird. - differences - similarities - peculiarities - Do we have a canonical history vs. the canon - Lost art? Lost bits of art? vs. forgotten events and forgotten parts of events - Object vs event; - - value vs fact asymmetric flat trippy oil painting depicting the red factory at night. there are recursive elements and repeating waves.
