aesthetics
Aesthetics (; also spelled æsthetics and esthetics also known in Greek as Αισθητική, or ''"Aisthētiké"'') is a branch of philosophy dealing with the nature of art, beauty, and taste, with the creation and appreciation of beauty.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/aesthetic )〕〔(Definition 1 of ''aesthetics'' ) from the Merriam-Webster Dictionary Online.〕 It is more scientifically defined as the study of sensory or sensori-emotional values, sometimes called judgments of sentiment and taste.〔Zangwill, Nick. "(Aesthetic Judgment )", ''Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy'', 02-28-2003/10-22-2007. Retrieved 07-24-2008.〕 More broadly, scholars in the field define aesthetics as "critical reflection on art, culture and nature."〔Kelly (1998) p. ix〕〔(Review ) by Tom Riedel (Regis University)〕 In modern English, the term aesthetic can also refer to a set of principles underlying the works of a particular art movement or theory: One speaks for example of the Cubist aesthetic.〔http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/aesthetic〕
==Etymology==
The word ''aesthetic'' is derived from the Greek αἰσθητικός (''aisthetikos'', meaning "esthetic, sensitive, sentient"), which in turn was derived from αἰσθάνομαι (''aisthanomai'', meaning "I perceive, feel, sense").〔(Definition of ''aesthetic'' ) from the Online Etymology Dictionary〕 The term "aesthetics" was appropriated and coined with new meaning in the German form ''Æsthetik'' (modern spelling ''Ästhetik'') by Alexander Baumgarten for the first time in his dissertation ''Mediationes philosophicae de nonnullis ad poema pertinentibus'' ("Philosophical considerations of some matters pertaining the poem") in 1735,
even though his later definition in the fragment ''Aesthetica'' (1753) is more often referred to as the first definition of modern aesthetics.〔N Wilson - (Encyclopedia of Ancient Greece (p.20) ) Routledge, 31 Oct 2013 ISBN 1-136-78800-X (2015-05-12 )〕
