Large and modern

Mimesis is one of the oldest, most fundamental concepts in Western aesthetics. This book offers a searching treatment of its long history at the center of theories of representational art. Moving between ancient and modern traditions, it contends that the history of mimesis hinges on problems that are of concern for contemporary aesthetics.With wide-ranging erudition, bold philosophical insight, and a vibrant aesthetic sensibility, Stephen Halliwell demonstrates that the ancient Greek tradition of arguing about mimesis is not the crude and single-minded defense of literal copying that many have seen in it. It is, rather, a highly complex tradition of debate and contestation, in which questions of foundational importance about artistic meaning are repeatedly confronted. Moving with graceful assurance from Plato and Aristotle to contemporary reworkings of the tradition by Brecht and Adorno, Barthes and Derrida, Halliwell shows us the depth and fertility of classical arguments. A stunning achievement, which will define the subject for many generations.--Martha C. Nussbaum, The University of ChicagoHalliwell addresses central topics in the history of aesthetics with continuing echoes in current debates. The scholarship is impeccable, the writing is clear, the histories are illuminating, the theoretical views are intriguing, and the scope is most impressive. I do not know of any comparable book that succeeds at combining scholarship with history and original thought.--Cynthia Freeland, University of HoustonWe have not seen a comprehensive study of the classical concepts of mimesis, nor has anyone shown the place of mimesis in the history of aesthetics, nor has anyone argued generally for the usefulness of the concept to contemporary theory. Art and philosophy in the twentieth century were hostile to the idea that art is mimesis, and ancient Greek theories have seemed quaint to modern eyes. Halliwell may, through this book, be on the cutting edge of a revolution in thinking.--Paul Woodruff, University of Texas, AustinMichael Silk - Times Literary SupplementStephen Halliwell's formidable book... is scholarly, lucid, wide-ranging, discriminating.... An outstanding example of taking ideas seriously, and one that deserves a wide and intelligent readership.

The visible part of the connector is just 5 mm in width. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This beautiful handcrafted handrail is made from 100% stainless steel. The brackets are welded to the handrail in that manner, that no welding seam is visible. This gives this handrail a clean and perfect look. Our welding “artist” is using just a thin tungsten needle to weld each bracket to the rail. This is a tricky and unique technique, resulting in just a perfect look. And the welding is something you look at, every time you go upstairs! As our handrails are made from stainless steel only, you can use them either in- or outside. As long as you keep it away from salt or acids, the handrails will not rust. Each holder should be fastened to the wall with 3 screws, screws and dowels are not supplied due to the different substrates. This gives even the longest handrail a perfect and sturdy hold to the wall. The caps at each end are glued and the manufacturer takes care about the perfect fit. No gaps are allowed. Due to the tolerances in the production, there can be problems in fitting the caps tightly. In this case, each individual cap is being manually treated to perfectly fit. These handrails are manufactured, to meet the high standards of “made in Germany”. What we offer here are our basic lengths. In case you need a specific length, or you need the brackets to be at different positions, this is absolutely no problem. Simply order the length next larger to what you need and send us an email with your exact needs. Each individual handrail is tailor made to the needs of our customers.
