도스토옙스키와 시각 시각 학습과 윤리의 문제

초록

Visual cognition is the key to understanding Dostoevsky. In his texts, seeing is always intertwined with knowing. As he insisted in numerous critical essays, the most significant human organ for an artist is the eye, and the most crucial barometer for a genuine artwork is the proper act of seeing. The proper act of seeing for him has nothing to do with verisimilitude or photographic accuracy. Mimesis, whether a visual, or psychological, or linguistic, cannot be a goal of perception. What is important is how to see a human being as a human being with human eyes. Seeing can be an act of domination and exploitation. In order to see a fellow human being as a human being, we have to learn to make seeing an act of compassion. In short, for Dostoevsky seeing is not only a cognitive act, but an ethical act.
