| Sumario: | Aesthetic experience of nature is seen as a mean to promote environmental awareness. The traditional approach to some classical concepts such as nature, beauty and landscape must be updated incorporating those values which are generally accepted and involve the relationship between humans and their environment. The current cultural context which is biased towards a superficial and formalist approach of aesthetics is also reviewed. Later, stress is put on the sensitive and cognitive sides of aesthetic experience. It is argued that our dependance on environmental processes carries with it the need to hold a responsible approach towards the aesthetic experience of nature and landscape. |
