Beauty for the Present: Mill, Arnold, Ruskin and Aesthetic Education
No full textThe present thesis examines the idea of aesthetic education of three eminent Victorians: John Stuart Mill, Matthew Arnold and John Ruskin. By focusing on the essence of what they meant with ‘the cultivation of the beautiful’ and, more importantly, the way their ideas of beauty informed their criticism of society, my study aims to contribute to our understanding of the idea of aesthetic education in the Victorian context and, further, to participate in a recent debate about the nature of beauty and aesthetic education.
Chapter One focuses on John Stuart Mill’s concept of ‘feeling’ in a series of essays. I will demonstrate how Mill’s idea of ‘aesthetic education’ was an ‘education of feelings,’ and moreover, how this idea was integrated into his literary criticism, his later critique of democratisation, his description of an ideal liberal society and even his own style of writing. Chapter Two contains a comparative study of Matthew Arnold and Friedrich Schiller. Through a rereading of Arnold, I will argue that his idea of aesthetic education is essentially Schillerian and that their resemblance consists primarily in their stress on the importance of aesthetic unity for modern life, which was becoming increasingly fragmentary and multitudinous. Chapter Three examines John Ruskin’s idea of aesthetic education and concentrates particularly on the cultivation of perception. Perception, as I shall show, was pivotal in Ruskin’s idea of aesthetic education. Just as what happened in Mill and Arnold, the emphasis on the education of seeing continued from his early writings well into his art and social criticisms. It not only differentiated him from his fellow art critics; the conviction that people should perceive with a pure heart also enabled him to link observation of artistic details with moral criticism of contemporary society and, thereby, to turn the cultivation of the beautiful into a moral-aesthetic experience

Born around 1576, Bodenschatz was a composer and pastor who was active in Saxony and Thuringia. While serving as the cantor at the prominent Schulpforta near Naumburg, Saxony from 1600 to 1603, he compiled an anthology of eighty-nine motets called the Florilegium Selectissimarum Cantionum, which was published by Abraham Lamberg in 1603. Nearly all of the works contained in the anthology were in Latin and most were for eight voices. An expanded and revised volume of 115 motets was published in 1618 and was the only publication to truly bear the name of Florilegium Portense. The anthology was designed for use at the school, primarily to provide music for daily functions such as singing at meals. Three years later, Bodenschatz published another volume of 150 motets, entitled Florilegii Musici Portensis. The last was intended more for liturgical use and consists mostly of music by Italian composers. Eighty-three of the pieces in this latter volume also occur in the Promptuarium Musicum, a contemporary four-volume collection edited by Abraham Schadaeus and Caspar Vincentius. The anthologies have become known primarily because of their use by Johann Sebastian Bach in Leipzig, but they were widely used in schools and churches throughout Germany.
Research on the Florilegium has slowly progressed, but much of the music remains unavailable in score. The primary purpose of this project is to present editions of fourteen motets from the 1618 volume: three by Andreas Berger, one by Bodenschatz, five by Albinus Fabricius, two each by Andrea Gabrieli and Jacob Handl (known as Gallus), and one motet by Vincentius. These were chosen because they represent some of the more prolific composers found in the anthology, its editor, and possible contributor of the continuo part. The motets by Gabrieli and one by Handl were chosen because they are eight-voice arrangements of works originally scored for ten or twelve voices. During the transcription and editing process, it was discovered that the motets in the anthology differ, often in significant ways, from the composers’ original publications. The changes, although inconsistent, appear to be driven by a desire to make the music more accessible, most likely for the students at Schulpforta. There are also many errors in the Florilegium. The text of this study will explore each of the motets that were transcribed and examine the differences between the composers’ original publications and the versions in the Bodenschatz anthology
