An Inquiry Into Aesthetics

by E. Bruce Glenn

The term “aesthetics” is to many people forbidding or even repugnant in its strangeness. Those who write on the subject cannot even agree on how to spell the word; and its connotations —both popular and philosophic—are such as to suggest that this is a good subject to stay away from. That I have the temerity not to do so will, I hope, convey the importance which I believe aesthetics has in the development of a distinct New Church culture.
