dc.description.abstractThe concluding chapter builds bridges between the notions of art and aesthetics, human rights, universality, and dignity. The fields of aesthetics and human rights strive towards universality that transcends identities. Our ability to appreciate beauty is universal even if individual tastes differ with respect to the specific artistic object. Human rights discourse embraces universality in the form of human dignity - an irreducible core uniting all people and rendering them worthy of rights and duties simply by virtue of existing. The second part of the chapter draws on Indian philosophy in exploring the idea of universality through the five great elements - earth, water, fire, air, and space. Each element corresponds to a set of principles governing all of life, including solidity, fluidity, and transformation. Each chapter in this volume is then brought under this classification based on intuitive insight.
