Abstract
The author discusses Kulka's study on aesthetics, especially in regards to the system he presents for the quantification of the value of a work of art; the article also deals in detail with certain "positivist" features of Kulka's approach to art. From these the author then provides a detailed critique of selected examples.
At the same time, however, he appreciates the readable and intellectually stimulating nature of Kulka's book and of his texts in general.
