Course objectives
The last of the three freely related seminars tempts sentiment as an important dimension of a harmonious personality. Sometimes art is referred to as the communication of emotions, as a tool for the cultivation of emotion. It is not only about the development of receptive sensitivity and reflexivity, but also about the management of emotions and the expansion of empathy, the perception of belonging. Aesthetics of the 20th century. adds concepts of otherness, uncertainty and ugliness. Deepening the knowledge of a number of contexts opens students with a broad sense of feeling including marginal and ambivalent experiences. It leads to a deeper understanding of the potential of art education. The seminar is focused on students' active work with selected texts and their discussion. The papers and subsequent discussion of their topics aim to clarify the forms of art education that develop pupils' sensitivity. The aim is to clarify the forms of didactically anchored effects on emotional development. Initial attention is focused on three areas - a) body sensitivity - motorism and sensuality, b) introspective focus and reflexivity, c) social sensitivity and belief in the situation of the other.
