Résumé :
|
The essays collected in Aesthetics and Environement comprise a set of variations on art and culture guided by the theme of environment. The essays deal with the physical reality of environment such as the city, the shore, the water and the garden, but also with the virtual environment and the social one. Environmental aesthetics is a theme of the human performers and conditions from which it is fashioned. This enticing set of essays testifies to Berleant's special talent in moving easily between both natural and human environments and opens out the contemporary discussion beyond that the wilderness to the cultural and social environment. Berleant argues that neither the natural nor the human environments stands alone and both are best understood as distinctions that are coextensive in experience, that one can only speak of environment in relation to human experience. The theme of this book is that such experience suffuses the so-called natural world. He maintains the idea that in as much as people are embedded in these worlds, relationships, including human relationship are part of them. The melding of these two worlds leads Berleant to defend ultimately what he has termed "social aesthetics".
