It is structured around a set of key ideas and themes: Science, Joke, Play and Rhetoric. Lorda provides in-depth analysis of Gombrich's engagement with figures such as Huizinga, Freud, Hegel, and Popper. \u003cbr\u003eWhile there has been extensive secondary literature on Gombrich, this is the first book to provide a systematic analysis of his ideas and theoretical frameworks, taking into account the entirety of his writings. This major work of scholarship sheds new light on Gombrich as a thinker and turns Gombrich's ideas into a workable theory of art that can be used as an instrument to examine both the history of art and architecture and its current practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Partha Mitter, Joaquin Lorda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1399512579\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399512572\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/22\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 608\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.60h x 8.40w x 2.40d","brand":"Partha Mitter","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46024866070783,"sku":"9781399512572","price":195.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0ed2131b-6dfd-455c-8cdf-633725b92d84.jpg?v=1723129406","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gombrich-partha-mitter-9781399512572","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
