The essays in this general issue of Mosaic touch on a number of arts and explore a range of mental processes found both in the art itself and in its creation. Essays in this issue refer to the various forms of art: some consider the music of Bach and Handel, while others consider the art of Paul Cézanne and Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Other essays examine the meta-psychomachia in Umberto Eco’s The Name of the Rose, stages of the anima-figure in James Joyce’s Ulysses, typology in D.H. Lawrence, and space in John Fowles’s The French Lieutenant’s Woman.
