Languages of Art: An Approach to Theory of Symbols

One of the greatest works in philosophical aesthetics of this century, Languages of Art presents a systematic study of symbols and symbol systems and the way they function in our perseptions and actions and arts and sciences, and thus in the creation and comprehension of our worlds. This enquiry, ranging across psychology, linguistics, the theory of the mind, technology, and the sciences, furnishes a deeper understanding of art in its many forms -- music, dance, literature, and the visual arts.

Overall a very nice clean copy.
