Erwin Panofsky's Perspective as Symbolic Form is one of the great works of modern intellectual history, the legendary text that has dominated all art historical and philosophical discussions on the topic of perspective in this century. Finally available in English, it is an unrivaled example of Panofsky's early method that placed him within broader developments in theories of knowledge and cultural change. Here, drawing on a massive body of learning that ranges over Antique philosophy, theology, science, and optics as well as the history of art, Panofsky produces a type of "archaeology" of Western representation that far surpasses the usual scope of art historical studies.<br /> <br /> Perspective in Panofsky's hands becomes a central component of a Western "will to form," the expression of a schema linking the social, cognitive, psychological, and especially technical practices of a given culture into harmonious and integrated wholes. Yet the perceptual schema of each historical culture or epoch is different, and each gives rise to a different but equally full vision of the world. Panofsky articulates these different spatial systems, demonstrating their particular coherence and compatibility with the modes of knowledge, belief, and exchange that characterized the cultures in which they arose. Our own modernity, Panofsky shows, is characterized by its peculiarly mathematical expression of the concept of the infinite, within a space that is necessarily both continuous and homogeneous.
From reality to vision bespeaks a transforming emphasis from god to human. The later formation of perspective stresses a realization of a homogenous, visionary space, an artistic objectification. And this transformed perspectival space allocates the divine reality to the mathematically artistic space. A great intellectual, art and philosophy study.

评分文笔很好,很多不错的formal analysis,只是现在再读的话argument还行,构建在formal analysis上的论点总觉得不够硬。

评分Levin课上振臂惊呼: Panofsky当年在哪里讲的style and media in motion?就在隔壁Marquand!但这都2019年了Princeton还坚持不设media studies!你看这些学校里!绝无仅有!
