In ’Tradition and the Individual Talent’‚ T.S. Eliot so eloquently states "Art never improves‚ but... the material of art is never quite the same" (Eliot‚ 1921‚ p. I) . In other words‚ art stays itself but not quite the self it once used to be; rather a new version is created‚ recreated and refashioned over and over again. This axiom hints to the generative nature‚ a key feature marking art. This generative nature makes it possible for art to generate (new) art: the outcome of this process is similar

Jackson uses “qualia” as a main point to his deconstruction of Physicalism. Qualia are the “felt qualities” of an experience. Imagine there was a man named Yuri; Yuri has tasted pizza before.

Hegelianism Hegel’s Dialectic The present study requires familiarity with Hegel’s dialectic view which for a while dominated European philosophy and whose effect presides to the present day. As M.H.

Tom McCarthy’s Remainder is a piece of metafiction that helps to “map the paradoxical remainder of the genre after everything novelistic has been subtracted from it”. It centres around a nameless narrator who‚ in the aftermath of an undisclosed accident‚ finds himself coming into eight and a half million pounds in compensation and uses said money to fund actors to replicate scenarios in order to find true authenticity.
