The Handbook of Gestalt-Theoretic Psychology of Art synthesizes contemporary research in the psychology of perception, cognition, language and hearing to reassess the Gestalt approach to studying the arts.
The Handbook of Gestalt-Theoretic Psychology of Art synthesizes contemporary research in the psychology of perception, cognition, language and hearing to reassess the Gestalt approach to studying the arts.
Since Rudolf Arnheim’s death in 2007, the field has seen a resurgence, with scientists revisiting and reinventing previously articulated points of view. For the first time, this new work is gathered in a single comprehensive resource. Beginning with a history of the field, the book considers meta-theoretic issues before discussing the various senses. It explores topics including aesthetics, space, poetry, literature, music, and film, bringing together leading researchers from across the discipline.
It will be an essential read for all students and researchers of the psychology of art, the psychology of perception, or Gestalt Theory.
