I hope that, as you explore my website, you’ll want to learn more about the education of Aesthetic Realism, with its understanding of the world, the arts, and the human self. Studying it has made my life rich and happy, and it can do this for every person.
A few ill-motivated people have used the web to lie about Aesthetic Realism. I hope you’ll use your critical mind to see past these lies, and find out about the logical, beautiful, honest education that is Aesthetic Realism.
Here are just some of the many websites through which you can learn more!
→Public seminars at the Foundation, about women’s and men’s questions, art, music, education & more
→Special theatrical and musical events
→Self and World: An Explanation of Aesthetic Realism, by Eli Siegel
→The Aesthetic Realism Teaching Method
→Aesthetic Realism Online Library
Every two weeks, a new issue of the periodical The Right of Aesthetic Realism to Be Known is published. These issues include commentary by Chairman of Education Ellen Reiss, lectures, essays, and poems by Eli Siegel, and papers by students of Aesthetic Realism from public seminars. The subjects that TRO deals with are wide-ranging, and include Education; Literature and Poetry; Economics; Mind, and the questions of men and women.
Here are some issues I’d like to call your attention to:
“The Self: Clever, Deep, & Confused”
“What Makes Imagination Kind or Cruel?”
“Timothy Lynch Represents America”
