David B. Gosselin, Cynthia Chung and Uwe Alschner discuss the true meaning and purpose of aesthetic education, as uniquely elaborated by the German classical poet Friedrich Schiller. How does man’s conception of beauty affect his actions on and off the political stage? How do civilization’s highest moral principles materialize through culture? And how do we break the binds of feeling and duty, Reason and Necessity, without devolving into barbarism or savagery?

We explore these questions and many more.shift global attention and accelerate resolution through rhetorical escalation.
