    1242 Words  | 3 Pages

    It is split up into sections, each containing definitions, historical context, factual examples, and in many cases addressed flaws. In the begging of the article, the author provides the readers with his intensions, and ends with a recapitulation, providing the readers with a list of art definitions as the last page. (5b) The article is structured around the concept of having an accurate definition of art and artworlds—analyzes how the earliest art was created by individuals who certainly did not possess the concept, to how modern artists’ decide to alternate the it. (6)The word “Defining” best crystalizes the article. A well-developed concept of art needs to have a stable definition.

  • Ralph Waldo Emerson's Art

    1053 Words  | 3 Pages

    The concept with which Ralph Waldo Emerson’s “Art” deals is the recognition of beauty through art. Art is viewed through the course of the composition as both an expression of the human soul and as a language that speaks to all individuals, not just the rich or the privileged. To the individual, art is a means through which he/she can be inspired to create and, in turn, inspire others. What Emerson attempts to pontificate is the overarching idea that art conveys different meanings unto different individuals and serves as a tool for inspiration for the spirit. In delivering his viewpoints on the subject of art, Emerson remains consistent and flowing as he not only informs the reader about the subtleties of art, but also raises valid ideas about its perception and challenges the reader to question their own perception and value of the subject.

    The term art is one open to many different definitions. It can symbolize music, architecture, sculpture, paintings, photography, or even everyday objects. There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to describing art. However, the interesting thing regarding art is its relationship with society. Art and society are a duo that has been working together since the dawn of time. As long as there is a society, art is able to be produced. Even dating back to prehistoric times the relationship between art and society has been observed. Often times, though, the assumption one guides the other is argued. The discussion of whether art influences the way in which people view society or if society determines what art can represent has been up for
