Imitationen – mehr Schein als Sein?

Author(s): Buchholz, Kai

Abstract

Being iconic signs, pictures usually stand in a particular relation of similarity to the objects they represent. Although similarity hence plays a major role within the discipline of image science, the peculiar properties of this similarity relation cannot be easily defined. The following philosophical investigation into the nature of a different form of similarity, namely imitation, will shed some new light on the concept of similarity within image science, thereby contributing to a better understanding of this difficult concept.
