αισθησιασμός
‘Αισθησιασμός’ refers to an appeal to the five senses (sight, sound, smell, taste, touch) in art and literature. It is distinct from sensuality, as it focuses on the aesthetic appreciation of sensory experience rather than just physical pleasure. It's about creating a rich, vivid, and palpable world for the audience.
