Throughout history, and all over the world, viewers have treated works of art as if they were living beings: speaking to them, falling in love with them, kissing or beating them. Although over the past twenty years the catalogue of individual cases of such behavior towards art has increased immensely, there are few attempts at formulating a theoretical account of them, or writing the history of how such responses were considered, defined or understood. That iswhat this book sets out to do: to reconstruct some crucial chapters in the history of acccounting for such behavior in Western Europe.
