The Open Gate to Transcultural Esthetics
The Open Gate to Transcultural Esthetics

Summary/Abstract: The topic of this paper is the specific transcultural point of esthetics. The pathical dimension of esthetics in culture is here taken as the sub-topic. The author scrutinizes it in detail, especially in terms of anthropological meanings. Pathos forms the esthetical principle and because of it, it has its own fundamental ethical dimension. The approach of this paper is strictly methodologically anthropological; the pathical dimension of esthetics is critically conceived as a metaphysical part of culture sui generis and due to it, it creates the fundament for transcultural sociality.
