Practical Aesthetics
Thinking in the World
Series editors: Jill Bennett and Mary Zournazi
Thinking in the World combines the work of key thinkers to pioneer a new approach to the study of thought. Responding to a pressing need in both academic and wider public contexts to account for thinking as it is experienced in everyday settings, the Reader and Book Series explore our thinking relationship to everything from illness, to built environments, to ecologies, to other forms of life and technology.
Bringing together phenomenology with recent trends in cognitive science and the arts, this unique, field-defining collection illuminates thinking as a practical activity. It interweaves a series of distinctive chapters and commentaries into a compelling whole, constituting a new framework and set of resources for analyzing thinking in real-world situations. Rather than simply thinking about the world, the authors examine the ways in which we think in and with the world in its physical, material, and social dimensions. A philosophy of thinking in action, it provides a multifaceted but sustained account of neurobiological experience and its inexorable connection to the world.

Bernd Herzogenrath
When in 1750 Alexander Baumgarten published the first part of his Aesthetica , he basically reinvented philosophy by defining a new way of how to perceive its objects of inquiry: logical analysis could not cope with the complexity of individual objects. Thus, logic had to be complemented by a nonabstractive way of analysis Baumgarten dubbed aesthetics , a theory of sensate thinking. Sensible or aesthetic cognition, clear-obscure as it is, is of the utmost importance for making sense of the worldthe logic of sense has to be aligned with the logic of sensation.
It might be of interest here that Baumgartens Aesthetics (which he considers both a science and an art: a science of the lower cognitive faculties and an art of beautiful thinking; see 1 in Baumgarten 2007) opens with a chapter on heuristicswhich does not denote a clear-cut method (the term method in fact denotes a , meta-hodos, a way afterward , a retroactive abstraction, a recipe), but is more related to a (nonfinite) inventiveness, an improvisationand here Baumgarten relates to the - (improvisations) of the child that imitates beauty when it sees it, not merely apprehends it (like the adult; see 57). Thus, what is at stake is not so much the issue of method, but rather the question of arts specific potential for expressing sensible cognition, with aesthetics as an analogon rationis , both analogous to and different from rational logics. Aesthetics thus counts as a defense of the Sensual as the Nonrepresentational, and this is not only evident in the content of thinking, but also in new forms of presentation, in which figures of thought reveal themselves.
