William responded: "What is the best of Van Gogh and how do we know it?" Oof. In fact William caught me in a stupid/careless locution. I was not justified in saying "The best". More correctly it should have read: "Much of Mozart affords me an experience I prize; > ditto much of Van Gogh, and much of Dickinson. But am I > justified in calling all of them instances of a sui generis > event called "aesthetic experience"?" ************** You're invited to Hollywood's biggest party: Get Oscars updates, red carpet pics and more at Moviefone.
