Beyer (teacher education, Indiana U.) argues for fully integrating the arts into education by viewing them as products of the cultural, social, political, economic, and ideological contexts out of which they emerge and from which a significant part of their meaning is derived. First showing how the dominant traditionspreoccupied with beauty and formhave affected the role, purpose, and value of the arts, Beyer then explores the possibility of reconstructing educational policies and practices to reflect the contextualized perspective, and in turn, turn teaching into an art form. Beyer's grand gesture is to argue that art is personal and social communication necessary to a democratic culture. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

The arts, popular culture, and social change
Here Gilson, the noted French philosopher and historian laid down his thoughts about arts in 8 essays. I just read the first chapter, here I summarize it in 3 points:
1] Art is not a kind of knowledge, but it falls in the area called making. We confuse teaching art with teaching art appreciation. in the order of the fine arts, knowing is making, hence what is not directly relevant to the making of a work is ABOUT art, NOT art itself. I believe this insight also applies to sociology of law & "pure" law.
2] There are 2 kinds of beauty: Industrial & Fine Arts. Industrial art is like the beauty of for example jet turbine, car engines etc, they have their own beauty but it's different than beauty characterized by Fine Arts.
3] Art doesnt neccesarily have anything to do with truth, truth is a
concept nearer to the realm of being than beauty.
Hmm that s just chapter 1, still 7 chapters to go...I think it's going to be hard going but I don't know...
