Axiological Dimension of Contemporary Reconfiguration of Aisthesis

• Languages of publication: PL

Abstracts

The traditional idea of aesthetics was connected to the sphere of art. Exclusively. Radical ideas of the avant-garde of the 20th century together with the expanding role of media and technology in contemporary culture led to broadening research of aesthetics. Contemporary aesthetics is interested in “aesthetic” in the broadest sense of this word. Thus, it is focused not only on art but also it is interested in everyday reality which is the very object of aesthetic processes. Most of all, however, it is focused on the relationship between art and various spheres of reality. One of the consequences of this changes is questioning the traditional hierarchy of senses with the sense of sight as prior. In my research I point at reasons for such hierarchy and I suggest some alternative ideas. According to the critics of the contemporary culture I mention in this work that balance to the hegemony of the sense of sight and vision may lie in the sense of hearing and sound as such. That is why I describe the metaphor connected to seeing and hearing and the vision of the world associated with it.
