Mild intoxication and other aesthetic feelings: psychoanalysis and art revisited
Angelaki 10 (3):157 – 170 (2005)
Abstract
The enjoyment of beauty has a peculiar, mildly intoxicating quality of feeling The science of aesthetics investigates the conditions under which things are felt as beautiful, but it has been unable to give any explanation of the nature and origin of beauty Psychoanalysis, unfortunately, has scarcely anything to say about beauty either.1 Freud.My notes
