| Abstract: |
This article deals with the relationship between aesthetics and pedagogy, art and education, in John Dewey's thinking. First, I try to show that traces of the young Dewey's interest in Hegel and German idealism could be found even in his later writings, on both aesthetics and pedagogy. He worked, in both these areas, with the same main perspectives and concepts, such as nature, process, growing and experience. Although in recent years some authors have tried to emphasize the importance of Dewey's aesthetics, suggesting that it can help us to understand contemporary art, I argue that his pedagogical theory has greater relevance today than his aesthetics, but also that educational practitioners as well as scholars nonetheless have much to learn from his aesthetic theories, i.e. that these theories are now more fruitful within pedagogy than within aesthetics itself.
