ZUPPONE, Romina. Are there any Essential Differences amongst Artistic and Scientific Representations?: Consequences for a General Theory of Scientific Representation. Anal. filos. [online]. 2014, vol.34, n.2, pp.147-170. ISSN 1851-9636.
The goal of this paper is to show, by means of a thought experiment, and of the explication of the concept of artistic representation in the work of Arthur Danto, that there are important difficulties to provide an essentialist distinction among artistic and scientific representations. As a consequence of this, I will challenge the view according to which there is a need of providing a general theory of scientific representation. I will claim, though, that there is the need to focus on the normative side of scientific representation, that related to the use of representations in the context of scientific practice.
