Abstract
The main aim of the various and multifaceted papers collected in this issue was to revive and renew the international debate around the notion of “mimesis” adopting a strong interdisciplinary approach. The essays all stem from talks delivered at the International Conference Ways of Imitation organised in November 2015 at the University of Florence by Aisthesis in cooperation with the Nouvelle Revue d’esthétique. The title of the Conference, Ways of Imitation, aimed to point to the diversity of ways in which the notion of mimesis can be declined: the dynamics of the cognitive processes, the question of the origin of art and of the paradoxical ontology that characterizes its works and, more in general, the models of learning and transmitting knowledge.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
