Author: Emmanouil Aretoulakis. But can we actually have an aesthetic appreciation of terror or terrorism?. And if we can, is it ethical or legitimate?. Emmanouil Aretoulakis proposes that Western spectators and subjects from the eighteenth century onwards have always felt, unconsciously or not, a certain kind of fascination or even exhilaration before scenes of tragedy and natural or manmade disaster.
