| summary | In the late 19th century in northern Spain and southern France prehistoric mural paintings and engravings were discovered. My talk inquires into some of the epistemic questions that this rich and much debated material has given rise to. Focusing on Ernst Cassirer's notion of symbolic forms I will propose a yet untried way out of the hermeneutical impasse where the interpretation of the paleolithic pictures finds itself today. |
