SCOPE OF THE STUDY:
The
major thoughtfulness of our consideration is the question is aesthetics
a legitimate discipline for the university? This is the subject of our
examination. To do this commendably, we will suggest that the answers
come slowly as we learn more about our nature and the universe. However,
we will look at an appraisal of aesthetics from the standpoint of race,
class, and gender. The critique below proposes to eliminate aesthetics
as a subject in the university. Therefore, we will also examine how a
new aesthetics could be constructed as a university discipline.
Furthermore, we will set forth a basis for its new agenda. The agenda
begins with what we call theoretical and general aesthetics. Finally, i
will conclude that art is a vital discipline for development in civil
society through adequate verification.
