Susan Langer and the woeful world of facts

Susanne Langer is mainly known as the American philosopher who, starting from her famous Philosophy in a New Key (1942), worked in aesthetics and famously saw art as the product of the human mind’s most important, distinctive and remarkable ability, i.e., the ability to symbolise.

Under senare år har olika insatser genomförts med avsikt att öka arbetskraftsdelta-gandet
