What must we learn from a definition of beauty? What sort of exposition
would make us understand what aesthetic appreciation is? (SATA.) -
ANSWER-We must learn from it why, when, and how beauty appears, what

understand what aesthetic appreciation is.

How does he arrive at this understanding?(SATA.) - ANSWER-Must widen our
notion of deliberate criticism so as to include those judgments of value
which are instinctive and immediate, that is, to include pleasures and pains
we must also narrow our notion of aesthetics so as to exclude all
perceptions which are not appreciations which do not find value in their
objects (SPHERE OF CRITICAL or APPRECIATIVE PERCEPTION)

, If the world lacked any consciousness (or conscious being) whatsoever,
what also would be absent in the changing arrangements and natural

to life and not essential to it, the race of man might have existed upon the
earth and acquired all the arts necessary for its subsidence without
processing a single sensation
-Everything you do is to do it no good or bad outcome to it
Given your answer to #5, is the existence of pure consciousness or intellect
alone itself sufficient to ensure the existence of what would be absent
without it? That is, is something else in combination with consciousness
needed?(SATA.) - ANSWER-Self-preservation?
What axiom can we assert for all moral philosophy?(SATA.) - ANSWER-There
is no value apart from some appreciation of it, and no good apart from
some preference of it before its absence or its opposite.

it
