Lecture 1: M Twist on self-intelligible wholes

Lecture 2:

We are taking the position that works of art are self-intelligible wholes. Now, we are contrasting that position to other positions taken by people who believe the intelligibility of the work lies in the historical epoch, or people who regard the work as a cause of effects and look for intelligibility in the causes and people who make subjective interpretations.
