The Literary Work Of Art by Roman Ingarden

"The Literary Work of Art" is a philosophical exploration into the ontology of literature, examining how a literary work exists as a multilayered structure, comprising of sounds, meanings, and the phenomenological experiences they evoke. The book delves into the intricacies of how these layers interact to create a dynamic and immersive aesthetic object, which is both a creation of the author and an interpretation by the reader. Through a detailed analysis, the work discusses the role of ambiguity, intentionality, and the reader's involvement in actualizing a text, offering a comprehensive framework for understanding the complexity and richness of literary art.
