Space, Geometry and Aesthetics: Through Kant and Towards Deleuze

by P. Rawes

Overview

Examining multiple modes of spatio-temporal and geometric figurations of life, the author explores how relationships between space, geometry and aesthetics generate productive expressions of subjectivity, developed through Kant's 'reflective subject' and 'geometric' texts by Plato and others towards Deleuze's philosophy of sense.
