Transparency Literal transparency is such as is seen in

glass. Clear-ness, being see-through

Phenomenal transparency, the illusion of transparency, is created with spatial or

pictorial layering, leaving something that is not really transparent, but ambiguous.

An in-between state.

Possessing no perceivable mediating factor, the appearance of neutrality. This is the type of transparency used to discuss the lack of obvious presence of an author or artist in

writing and art.
