Cover of Federica Pau & Luca Vargiu: Following Forms, Following Functions (PDF)

This volume of collected essays is devoted to the analysis of the relationship between form and function, two concepts that have played, and continue to play, an important role in several disciplines, from philosophical reflection to theoretical biology, and from the discourses related to art, image and design to cultural anthropology.As such, this book explores the influence of these two notions in such a broad disciplinary field, in order to draw out an original global overview on the subject. For this purpose, it presents contributions by aestheticians, art historians, archaeologists, ethnoanthropologists, and morphologists, covering a wide chronological span, from Ancient Greece to the Middle Ages, and from Modernism to more recent events that still need to be historicized.
