...sometimes you wonder if any sane thought-out thought will get HEARD. Appreciate the recommendation: don't know a thing about the film (perhaps you can provide a summary). Is it in English (the director sounds French)?I believe "aesthetic" is an adjective: it describes (the same as with the word, "beautiful" which is a rough synonym and the same part of speech). You might be confusing this with "aesthetics" which is a discipline and is a noun (nouns being ideas).
Yes, I mean all parameters.
Thanks for your response.
Respect,

I did a post-graduate seminar in the "Revolt Into Style: The Modern Aesthetic" at the Art Institute of Chicago as part of my aesthetics/art history course work.
The use in which you quote - "the modern aesthetic" - would support your statement (clearly a noun). However, I think you'd agree that is an Atypical useage not found in standard prose or speech . . similar to the word, "aesthete".What did you think of the course you took, incidentally?
Respect,
Guy
