Tolstoy's Formula

(A&P) Just by way of review, here's the formula we constructed for Tolstoy's theory of art:

A (Tolstoy) = I-sub a-sub c-sub e + F + C-sub o-sub e.

Or, in slightly more readable form without subscripts:

A(T) = Iace + F + Coe, where

I = intentionality
a = artist
c = communication
e= emotion
F = form
o = observer

What do you think Freud's formula will look like?
