Beschreibung des Verlags
In "Morality and the Novel," Lawrence reflects deeply on what Heidegger calls "the creative process" (40): When Van Gogh paints sunflowers, he reveals, or achieves, the vivid relation between himself, as man, and the sunflower, as sunflower, at that quick moment of time. . . . The vision on the canvas is a third thing . . . the offspring of the sunflower itself and Van Gogh himself. [It] is forever incommensurable with the canvas, or the paint, or Van Gogh as a human organism, or the sunflower as a botanical organism. . . It is a revelation of the perfected relation, at a certain moment, of a man and a sunflower. (171)
