225The Idea of a Cultural AestheticDialogue and Universalism 13 (11-12): 113-122. 2003.In this time of increasing international involvement, one cannot but be struck by the fact of sharply different traditions concerning art and its practice.3 Recognizing that the arts are a salient part of every culture may lead us to wonder about their features and may make us curious about how and why the arts of other cultures differ from what we find more familiar. Perhaps we hope that the arts will offer us some insight into different cultures and their distinctive worlds. This, then, is in …Read more

342Making Theory, Making Sense: Comments on Ronald Moore's Natural BeautyEthics, Place and Environment 12 (3): 337-341. 2009.The broad scope and coherence of Natural Beauty are among its major strengths. Moore's syncretic theory tries to integrate diverse and sometimes conflicting theoretical strands. Of special importance is his recognition that the natural world is a social institution embodying perceptions that are conditioned, experiences communicated through language, and social beliefs and conventions. These lead him to consider the natural world as actually artifactual, and he terms it the 'natureworld'. Among …Read more

26The Environment and the Arts (edited book)Ashgate Press. 2002.The environment raises basic questions about many of the fundamental concepts and doctrines in aesthetics and the arts.

Introducing many for the basic ideas and issues in the theory of the arts, particularly as they bear on envi…Read more

439Environmental SensibilityStudia Phaenomenologica 14 17-23. 2014.Aesthetics is fundamentally a theory of sensible experience. Its scope has expanded greatly from an initial centering on the arts and scenic nature to the full range of appreciative experience. Expanding the range of aesthetics raises challenging questions about the experience of appreciation. Traditional accounts are inadequate in their attempt to identify and illuminate the perceptual experiences that these new applications evoke. Considering the range of environmental and everyday occasions a…Read more

Die ästhetische UmweltpolitikPolylog. 2013.Arnold Berleant gilt als einer der Gründerväter der environmental aesthetics, zu der er seit den 1970er-Jahren veröffentlicht hat und weltweit Vorträge hält; er war jahrelang Präsident der International Association of Aesthetics und ist emeritierter Professor der Long Island University. Sein Aufsatz in dieser Polylog-Ausgabe nimmt zunächst seine Grundgedanken zur Ästhetik als Sinnlichkeitslehre wieder auf. Daraufhin gründet Berleant die »ästhetische Politik« auf der Idee eines »Gemeinguts der Wa…Read more

22Basic Issues In Aesthetics (review)Idealistic Studies 22 (3): 222-223. 1992.Interest in aesthetics has grown in recent years, yet since Virgil Aldrich’s Philosophy of Art appeared in 1963, there has been no small, general survey that could be joined with primary sources to introduce students to the field. Several such books are now emerging on the scholarly scene, with Professor Eaton’s Basic Issues in Aesthetics the first to appear. This is a helpful development, for the teaching of general aesthetics has subsisted in large part on various collections of primary materi…Read more

Mitias (ed.), Possibility of the Aesthetic Experience, Distributors For the U.s. and Canada, Kluwer Academic. pp. 91--106. 1986.From the earliest times art has been integral to human culture. Both fascinated and perplexed by the arts, people have tried, since the age of classical Greece, to understand how they work and what they mean. Philosophers wondered at first about the nature of art: what it is and how it relates to the cosmos. They puzzled over how art objects are created, and extolled human skills that seem at times godlike in their powers. But perhaps the central question for such philosophers as Plato and Arist…Read more

223Re-thinking AestheticsFilozofski Vestnik 20 (2): 25-33. 1999.This paper proposes a radical re-examination of the foundations of modern aesthetics. It urges that we replace the tradition of eighteenth century aesthetics, with its insistence on disinterestedness and the separateness of the aesthetic, and its problematic oppositions, such as the separation of sense from cognition. In their place it appeals to a more process-oriented, pluralistic account, one that takes note of varying cultural traditions in aesthetics, that recognizes the aesthetic as a comp…Read more
