The western philosophers’ perspective of art is quite different from the Islamic philosophers’ philosophy of art because western philosophers repeatedly employed their western criteria and norms in evaluation of Islamic art. Consequently, this research analyzes art philosophy from Islamic philosophers’ perspective so as to have a deep understanding of art, its forms and values. The main objectives were o analyze the philosophy of art based on Islamic philosophers’ perspective, to determine what influences Islamic philosophers’ perspective of art and to understand the important role of art in Islamic culture. Methodology used was a cross sectional survey that was descriptive with qualitative research and quantitative research being employed. Specifically, research participants only included Islamic philosophers derived from different regions. Findings reveal that Islamic philosophers exteriorize and visualize what hidden inwardly in metaphysics and revelation art is. Moreover, it was revealed that majority of the Islamic philosophers believed that western philosophers misunderstand their perspective of art. In addition, the Islamic philosophers strongly agreed that Art should mainly express submission to God and that artwork that is nonconforming to Islamic worldview is unsuccessful artistically. Another philosophy of artwork is that it should reflect Divine Unity and consideration of beauty was of great importance in art according to Islamic philosophers. It wasconcluded that art and what constitutes art significantly depend on the culture and believes of individual groups or religious affiliations. Islamic philosophers have a radical different perspective of art philosophy where man is considered as divinity instrument created by Supreme Allah.

This chapter considers why contemporary analytic philosophers of religion have neglected liturgy and focused almost all of their attention on religious belief. Following Descartes, reflections on mental activity and the mind have been central in modern philosophy. But that has not prevented the emergence of philosophy of art, philosophy of language, and political philosophy, none of which deal with mental activity or the mind. So why not philosophy of liturgy? Several explanations are considered; but none is found to be fully satisfactory. The Introduction concludes with an explanation of how the subsequent discussion relates to liturgical theology and to anthropological ritual studies.


Abdelkébir Khatibi (1938–2009) is one of the greatest Moroccan thinkers, and one of the most important theorists of both postcolonialism and Islamic culture of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. This book introduces his works to Anglophone readers, tracing his development from the early work on sociology in Morocco to his literary and aesthetic works championing transnationalism and multilingualism. The essays here both offer close analyses of Khatibi’s engagements with a range of issues, from Moroccan politics to Arabic calligraphy and from decolonisation to interculturality, and highlights the important contribution of his thinking to the development of Western postcolonial and modern theory. The book acknowledges the legacy of one of the greatest African thinkers of the last century, and addresses the lack of attention to his work in the field of postcolonial studies. More than a writer, a sociologist or a thinker, Khatibi was a leading figure and an eclectic intellectual whose erudite works can still inform and enrich current reflections on the future of postcolonialism and the development of intercultural and transnational studies. The book also includes translated excerpts from Khatibi’s works, thus offering a multilingual perspective on his writing.

If that is the priority in weighing the mind and exploring the core of the perspective of thinking, of course, will move on to a "statement". Where the platform of thought will be the entrance and open a gap for other thoughts, because the thinking perspective finds the value of "abstract". The context of thinking is more about extracting the essence of thinking, so the value of art becomes abstract. The reality of the meaning of art is not only a question of form, but more than that, art will play freely about form. The basic theory of writing, using a qualitative frame of mind, using a curatorial approach. The form of virtue in art is actually not based on purely aesthetic values, but the depth of ideas as a way of "enlightenment" to determine the direction where we should be oriented. The result of this thought is, the continuity of artistic value is certainly constructed by; Awareness of the value of intensity, ethics-technique, psychology and full awareness of the essence of ideas (philosophy of art). So the perspective of virtue in art is the awareness of thinking about the abstraction of the universe itself, which is manifested in the form of works, namely the work of two dimensions of Text Art.

In reference to Belk’s theory of the extended self this thesis investigates how and to what extent the link between an object and one’s sense of self can affect consumption mode preferences. Two hypotheses are proposed: First, the level of self-extension into a material object correlates negatively with consumers’ willingness to participate in consumption modes that value access over ownership. And second, feelings of non-generosity and possessiveness have a mediating function in this relationship. Based on the premise that ownership-substituting consumption modes promise a more sustainable lifestyle the aim of this thesis is to contribute to a better knowledge on the effect of the symbolic meaning of object on and consumer preference.To empirically test the proposed theoretical model, an online survey with 130 German participants was conducted. In a correlative research design respondents were asked to evaluate a total of eight different objects in terms of personal attachment, feelings of possessiveness and non-generosity, and to state their willingness to access the objects through ownership-substituting consumption modes. Additionally, social trust and materialism were measured on a general level.The findings support the claim that the extent to which consumers perceive an object as integral to their extended self has an effect on their willingness to forsake ownership and rather access this object through renting- or sharing-offerings. Evidence is found that this effect can be mediated by possession-linked feelings such as possessiveness and non-generosity. A general model to answer the proposed hypothesis is not supported. Rather the findings raise awareness on the object-specific nature and complexity of these effects. It becomes clear that a realistic assessment of the symbolic meaning of ownership and possession requires further experimental research and multi-category comparison.

This chapter discusses aesthetic values in mathematics, science, and computing including aesthetic computing and aesthetic issues related to digital environment. A study of aesthetics has always been related to the arts, philosophy of art, and our judgments about sensory or emotional values of specific art works; they are in the focus of neuroaesthetics. The objectives of aesthetic studies have been changing following the developments in computing technology, shifting the stress on usability and efficiency of projects and visualizations. Challenges and demands in aesthetics and art are then discussed, starting from an essential question (What is an artwork and what is not an artwork?), and including art definitions, art manifestos, opinions on the role of art, beauty, and aesthetic perception of art. Aesthetic education and ways of looking at art complete the chapter.
