Wonder, the Rainbow, and the Aesthetics of Rare Experiences
Philip Fisher
In three instructive instances—a pair of paintings by Cy Twombly, the problem of doubling the area of a square, and the history of attempts to explain rainbows—Fisher examines the experience of wonder as it draws together pleasure, thinking, and the aesthetic features of thought.
