The Aesthetic Element In Education (1897) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781167149191)

The Aesthetic Element In Education, written by William Torrey Harris and first published in 1897, is a seminal work on the importance of aesthetics in education. Harris argues that the study and appreciation of beauty and art are essential components of a well-rounded education, and that they have a profound impact on the development of the individual's character and intellect. The book explores the role of aesthetics in various aspects of education, including the study of literature, music, and the visual arts, and provides practical advice for educators on how to incorporate aesthetic education into their curricula. Harris also discusses the philosophical and historical foundations of aesthetic education, drawing on the ideas of thinkers such as Plato, Aristotle, and Kant. The Aesthetic Element In Education remains a valuable resource for educators, students, and anyone interested in the role of aesthetics in human development.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
