Klappentext zu „Art′s Claim to Truth “
Following Heidegger's interpretation of the history of philosophy, Gianni Vattimo outlines the existential ontological conditions of aesthetics, paying particular attention to the works of Kandinsky, which reaffirm the ontological implications of art. Vattimo then builds on Hans-Georg Gadamer's theory of aesthetics and provides an alternative to a rationalistic-positivistic criticism of art. This is the heart of Vattimo's argument, and with it he demonstrates how hermeneutical philosophy reaffirms art's ontological status and makes clear the importance of hermeneutics for aesthetic studies. In a final section, Vattimo articulates the consequences of reclaiming the ontological status of aesthetics without its metaphysical implications, holding Aristotle's concept of beauty responsible for the dissolution of metaphysics itself.

Rezension zu „Art′s Claim to Truth “
"This long-overdue translation not only contributes to our appreciation of the significance of Gianni Vattimo's philosophy but is also an important event in the history of so-called continental aesthetics. Santiago Zabala's masterful introduction enhances the reader's understanding both of the context of Vattimo's early writing on art and of its continuing significance today." ¿ Robert Bernasconi, University of Memphis, and author of How to Read Sartre
