Abstract: | The paper is a critical discussion of the rich and insightful final chapter of Mitchell Green’s Self-Expression. There, Green seeks to elucidate the compelling, but inchoate intuition that when we’re fully and most expertly expressing
ourselves, we can ‘push out’ from within not just our inner representations, but also the ways that we feel. I question, first,
whether this type of ‘qualitative expression’ is really distinct from the other expressive forms that Green explores, and
also whether it’s genuinely ‘expressive’. I then scrutinize the nature of the ‘qualitative congruences’ that lie at the heart
of Green’s theory; and I wonder whether they can play the role Green claims they can in providing a novel account of artistic
expression. |
