Aby Warburg: contributions to art historiography

Více o knize

Focusing on Aby Warburg's influence, the book explores his contributions to contemporary art historiography, particularly in Brazil, where scholarship on him is limited. It highlights key concepts such as the survival of images and pathos formulas, proposing a fresh perspective on art history that challenges dominant narratives. The research includes analyses of Warburg's writings and his connections with thinkers like Jacob Burckhardt and Friedrich Nietzsche, alongside an innovative application of his historiographical methods to the work of Brazilian artist Farnese de Andrade.
