Scope/Description:

The choice of the name of the journal represents a farewell from the identification of aesthetics with hermeneutics and speculative philosophy of art. It also shows our strong commitment to the irreducibility of aesthetics to a mere psychological fact.The subtitle of the journal practices languages and knowledge concerning aesthetics indicates the present fertile pluralism of aesthetics. This is a pluralism of views and methods often connected with the different ways in which contemporary arts and aesthetic abilities present and structure themselves. Also it is a pluralism of thoughts and formulas which induces to relativize the western tradition within which the discipline of aesthetics was born. Finally it is a pluralism of epistemic landscapes which also trespasses into the sphere of sensibility and art. These various epistemic landscapes have recently experienced a revolutionary enlargement through the rise of some new or radically renewed disciplines from neurosciences to anthropology from cognitive sciences to psychobiology. Indeed we conceive Aisthesis as a public space where those different approaches and disciplines can interact.
