Getting to the truth
I began a website before blogs existed, called Aesthetic Realism, a New Perspective for Anthropology. This website provides an understanding of Aesthetic Realism as it explains culture and the human self.
It has some of the papers I wrote beginning more than 30 years ago. (The first one was, yes, "A New Perspective for American Anthropology" and it was published in India by the Anthropology Department of the University of Delhi. It was very exciting to see the acceptance letter--my first published paper!)
For the moment I'll also refer you to my blog A New Perspective for updates.
But to begin here on Live Journal, I'd also like you to know about more comprehensive websites and blogs that tell you what Aesthetic Realism is--what it really is. This is very important to me because there are misconceptions about it, here and there on the internet, introduced by a "band of liars"--whom I would prefer never to have to mention by name. It's easy enough for anyone to find out.
These misconceptions ought to be resolved by now, but they aren't. So for your information, there are truthful sources you can, and should see:
* The Aesthetic Realism Foundation.
* Edward Green, Composer & Music Educator who tells what is true about the Aesthetic Realism understanding of music: it is kind and revolutionary, and anti-prejudice. He is a professor of music.
* The Right of Aesthetic Realism to Be Known tells what's true about the news today and the literature and art of all time. Commentaries by Ellen Reiss are the most honest in the world today and the most penetrating.
* The Aesthetic Realism Theatre Company in New York City. See the lively theatrical events--classical and so avant-garde.
* Lynette Abel's website. Look at her art section in particular for a beautiful discussion of Sargent's famous "Madame X" and her Aesthetic Realism class report--which illustrates what a class with Eli Siegel was like.
* Friends of Aesthetic Realism--Countering the Lies is the website that takes up the lies I mentioned above--takes them up one by one, and shows how false they are. And it tells the truth, quoting what the best people in the media have been saying for years--things the "band of liars" prefers you don't know about and don't believe.
* And finally see my "Statement by Arnold Perey, Ph.D., Anthropologist and Aesthetic Realism Consultant" and when you finish it, read the funny story (an allegory) that tells the truth about the ugly motive of these individuals who would like to deceive you. Their motive isn't love for truth or the desire to do a public service. In the story you'll see how a brilliant philosopher of the past was hated by a clever and very mean person for the very things that made this philosopher important: His depth and origninality. And so the story is called "A Dramatic and Cautionary Tale about an Unknown and Very Unimportant Person."
Good reading!
