In the experiences of beauty and art<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Jo\u00e3o Const\u00e2ncio<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

OPEN CLASS<\/strong>
NOVEMBER 19TH OF 2025, 1.30PM
AUDITORIUM OF EP.1 \u2013 ESAD.CR<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

In this open lecture, Jo\u00e3o Const\u00e2ncio<\/strong>, Full Professor in the Department of Philosophy at NOVA University, will discuss the nature of the experience of beauty and art from the perspective of philosophy and literature. This session will challenge students from a wide range of ESAD disciplines to reflect on the meanings of the concepts of eros, beauty, truth, and art and to question the permanence of certain experiences and ideas in modernity, even though they have been transformed by the passage of time.Author of a monograph on Hieronymus Bosch’s The Temptations of Saint Anthony (On the Absurd. Temptations of Saint Anthony, by Hieronymus Bosch, Lisbon, Documenta, 2024) and a monograph on Plato’s Phaedrus (Three Discourses on Eros. Meditation on Plato’s Phaedrus, Lisbon, Tinta-da-China, 2025), Jo\u00e3o Const\u00e2ncio will pose questions that are perhaps unanswerable, but perennial and urgent. He will then engage in dialogue with participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
