Incidentally, serious philosophical dialogue usually avoids
judgment of the sort you seem to favor -- dismissive -- and instead
pursues threads of arguments to their ends, just to see what they
might uncover along the way. As I said, it's curiosity in
practice. As far as I can determine, with my feeble intellect, the
forum has never fully engaged even one basic problem in aesthetics,
the problem of beauty. Which may be why the actual philosophers of
art out there don't participate.
