Aestheticness

This picture resembles her, of course, but one must see her with her “specks” on to fully appreciate her “aestheticness.”

There have been great improvements made in the interior of the dining hall over the four years that I have attended Longwood, however the "graffiti" on the drinking area walls distract from the overall aestheticness of the dining area.

Mention must also be made here of Goodman (1968), a rather different approach to theorizing the aesthetic, which offers five symptoms, not of aesthetic propertyhood, but of aesthetic functioning on the part of a symbol system: syntactic density; semantic density; relative repleteness; exemplificationality; and complex reference. On such a multi-dimensional conception, aestheticness obviously becomes very much a matter of degree.
