Montero	Proprioceptive Aesthetics: Extending the Realm of Aesthetic Experiences	8/1/2004 - 7/31/2005	$40,000.00	Barbara	G.	Montero				Georgia State University	Atlanta	GA	30303-3011	USA	2003	Aesthetics	Fellowships for College Teachers and Independent Scholars	Research Programs	40000	0	40000	0	I aim to write a series of three papers on how our sense of proprioception--our inner sense of the positions and movements of our own bodies--allows us to experience beauty, grace and other aesthetic qualities. The project counters a long tradition that disparages the body as an object of aesthetic appreciation and addresses an area of philosophy of dance, namely, the role of proprioception in perceiving dance, that, while clearly important to understanding dance, has to a large degree been overlooked.
