Lęk w wymiarach sztuki (pp. 72-83),

In this article I follows different types of aesthetic fear, that is an anxiety induced by a work of art, from aesthetic and anthropological perspectives. I interested in haw fear and pleasure are related in the catharsis, in Edmund Burke's notion of sublime, in Goya's Black Paintings, as well as in the thought of Paul Virilio. The aesthetic fear appears together withe other feelings (such as pity or sadness), and primarily together with pleasure, which then is either autonomous or is born from a fascination with evil.
