Ticho

10,80 €

Silence can appear to be an absence that we nevertheless try to perceive. Daniela Šterbáková examines this experience through John Cage and analytic philosophy, moving from musical ideas to questions of absence, the senses, and knowledge.

This Slovak-language text is suitable for readers of aesthetics and the philosophy of perception. It also explores the distinction between everyday and philosophical thinking, asking whether the experience of silence is tied exclusively to hearing.

What is Ticho about?

Cage's musical and textual ideas provide the starting point. Roy Sorensen and Ian Phillips also enter the argument.
