Art as part of the humanities
Humanities are records of man’s our quest for answers to the
fundamental questions we ask about our life. The content of humanities is
anything that is inherently human---experiences, values, sentiments, ideals,
goals. The humanities are thus, expressions of our feelings and thoughts.
Humanities is different from Science since science is a discipline dealing with the
external world of us, as well as the facets of our being that can be subjected to
observation, measurement and experimentation. The sciences enable man to
understand and control nature and to harness its energy to make our lives more
comfortable and convenient.
Humanities, on the other, deal with our internal world---with our
personality and experiences, matters that cannot be exactly
measured, classified or controlled. The study of humanities
cannot be as precise nor as well-structured and uniform as the
study of say, biology or physics. It is subjective; it makes much
use of perception, feeling, intuition and insight.
Some are spectators could feel delight in their cognitive part not necessarily
the affective part.
