Alain de Botton - Reinventing Secular Society WRT to Religion
june 2010 by lightningdb
A secular religion would use all the tools of art in order to create an effective kind of propaganda in the name of kindness and virtue. Rather than seeing art as a tool that can shock and surprise us (the two great emotions promoted by most contemporary works), a secular religion would return to an earlier view that art should improve us. It should be a form of propaganda for a better, nobler life. It is in German philosophy of the late 18th century that we find the most lucid articulations of this idea of idealizing propaganda. In his On the Aesthetic Education of Man (1794), Friedrich Schiller proposed that artists should present us with portraits of secular "saints," heroic figures of insight and sympathy whose example should inspire us. Rather than confronting us with evocations of our darkest moments, works of art were to stand, in Schiller's words, as an "absolute manifestation of potential," they were to function like "an escort descended from the world of the ideal."
