Sustaining Loss: Art and Mournful Life - Atopia: Philosophy, Political Theory, Aesthetics
Gregg M. Horowitz
This book explores the uncanny, traumatic weaving together of the living and the dead in art, and the morbid fascination it holds for modern philosophical aesthetics. Beginning with Kant, the author traces how aesthetic theory has been drawn back repeatedly to the moving power of the undead body of the work of art.
