This book explores the contemporary modification of traditional relations among the arts. Interpreting C�zanne as a founder of Modernism, it focuses on an aesthetics of the image (with roots in Bergson, Heidegger, and Merleau-Ponty) of equivalent value across the arts and in literature. The author argues that C�zanne's transformation of traditional pictorial images and invention of radically new types of images resulted in the replacement of the mimetic motivation of the pictorial sign by symbolist, plastic, contemplative, and visionary motivations. These yielded four corresponding types of images all of which can be generally found together in all the great Modernist masters. After surveying the transformation of the image in the psychological theories of the nineteenth century, this investigation focuses on the Bergsonian philosophy of the image as a hermeneutical parallel of C�zanne's pictorial theory and practice. Included are original readings of the most important serial paintings of C�zanne, including the Mont. Ste.-Victoire, the Bathers, and the Cardplayers.
