Trending and Emerging

There is a growing interest in the relationship between aesthetics and environmental concerns, as seen in discussions around the 'environmental sublime' and ecophenomenology, highlighting the urgency of ecological issues in aesthetic discourse. - The Role of Emotion in Aesthetics:
An increasing focus on the emotional dimensions of aesthetic experience, particularly how emotions interact with and shape our aesthetic perceptions and judgments. - Interplay of Madness and Aesthetics:
Emerging discussions around madness as a lens for understanding aesthetic experiences suggest a trend towards exploring the intersections of mental health, creativity, and philosophical inquiry. - Atmospheric Experience:

Declining or Waning
- Traditional Aesthetic Theories:
There appears to be a waning interest in classical aesthetic theories that do not integrate contemporary philosophical discourse, possibly due to a shift towards more dynamic and experiential frameworks. - Narrowly Defined Phenomenological Studies:
While phenomenology remains relevant, there is a decline in papers that strictly adhere to traditional phenomenological methods without incorporating broader interdisciplinary approaches. - Historical Aesthetic Movements:
The focus on specific historical movements in aesthetics, such as Romanticism or Modernism, seems to be decreasing, replaced by more contemporary and applied discussions.
