Aesthetic Experience, Sense Perception and the Notion of Psychical Distance
Original language description
The so-called lower senses - smell, taste and touch - and their potential for aesthetic experience and arts have been of marginal but recurring interest to recent Anglo-American aesthetics. Questions that are invoked by any consideration of aesthetic potential of smell, taste or touch concern, nevertheless, the very centerpiece of our understanding to the aesthetic dimension of experience. In this paper, we will take some of these concerns to the fore; we will mostly ignore the other important area of inquiry: the questions aroused by a relation between these senses and art ontology (questions like: Are there arts of smell? Why (not)?). In the first part of the paper, we will present a short history of the discussion ranging from arguments presented byDavid Prall in the thirties, through young Arnold Berleant's defence of the lower senses aesthetics to recent studies that focus on one of the lower senses only, e.g. Carolyn Korsmeyer's and Elisabeth Telfer's taste aesthetics, or Larry
