Pod światło. Kilka uwag o źródłach hermeneutyki obrazu
Against the Light. Some Notes on the Sources of the Hermeneutics of the Image

Summary/Abstract: The text constitutes an attempt to look at the potential sources from which originates the hermeneutics of the image, one of the most important methodological proposals in contemporary art history, or even within the broadly understood science of the image. In addition to certain traditions in the study of art, the hermeneutics of the image referred, in a more or less overt manner, to various philosophical concepts from within the philosophy of art, taking them as the foundation for, among others, its distinctive concept of the ontology of an artwork, the ways of recognising and describing it, as well as the aims of interpreting and elucidating the image. The article also draws attention to the paradoxical fact of the hermeneutic philosophy of the image being rooted in the currents of Romantic art theory but simultaneously displaying a critical approach to the Romantic legacy.
