Basic Concepts and Methods of Feminist Aesthetics

Basic Concepts and Methods of Feminist Aesthetics Kim, Bok-Soon Feminist Aesthetics is not only a discipline, a new kind of epistemology but it is also a counter-movement against an established male-centered aesthetics. It begins with a reinterpretation of concepts which have been premise of established male-centered aesthetics in the West. In the result, it leads to questioning the propositions of established male-centered aesthetics, concerning the issues of reflection and the gender of representation of aesthetics, and the issues of aesthetic values. In feminist aesthetics, the concept of universality is a "situated universality" constituted contextually. It means an agreement in the community rather than the correspondence (reflection) to the real. Therefore, feminist aesthetic is a dialectics of 'constitution and finding-outs' The concept of speciality as category in feminist aesthetics consists of the singularity considering gender, and the situated universality premising 'we'. By unifying these two, the third theory is created. The methodology of feminist aesthetic as an interpretational practice of contexts and standpoints, takes part in the aesthetic identity of the work, and it is a standpoint which evaluates aesthetic values in the inner respect.
