Abstract

Abstract:In his presidential address, at the fiftieth anniversary of the American Society of Aesthetics in 1992, Peter Kivy suggested that "progress in the philosophy of art in the immediate future is to be made not by theorizing in the grand manner, but by careful and imaginative philosophical scrutiny of the individual arts and their individual problems." The study of the individual arts, and the differences between them, has, in the ensuing decades, provided a useful corrective to aesthetic theorizing in the grand manner. In this essay, I urge philosophers of art, art educators, and art theorists to consider a different option—the rigorous and creative investigation of art clusters: that is, various collections of artworks and art kinds, unified by significant similarities and cutting across the recognized artforms and genres.

艺术集群:相似性在美学研究和教育中的重要性
摘要:在1992年美国美学学会成立五十周年的总统演讲中,彼得·基维建议“在不久的将来,艺术哲学的进步不是通过宏大的理论化,而是通过对个体艺术及其个体问题的仔细和富有想象力的哲学审视。”,在随后的几十年里,它们之间的差异为美学理论化提供了有益的纠正。在这篇文章中,我敦促艺术哲学家、艺术教育家和艺术理论家考虑一个不同的选择——对艺术集群进行严格而创造性的调查:即各种艺术品和艺术种类的集合,通过显著的相似性来统一,并跨越公认的艺术形式和流派。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Aesthetic Education (JAE) is a highly respected interdisciplinary journal that focuses on clarifying the issues of aesthetic education understood in its most extensive meaning. The journal thus welcomes articles on philosophical aesthetics and education, to problem areas in education critical to arts and humanities at all institutional levels; to an understanding of the aesthetic import of the new communications media and environmental aesthetics; and to an understanding of the aesthetic character of humanistic disciplines. The journal is a valuable resource not only to educators, but also to philosophers, art critics and art historians.
