How does Dewey’s philosophy tie into Darwinian thinking?
It mostly comes into play on his concept that art is needed for the life of human beings. Dewey goes to nature and explains how many creatures in nature need to create to survive, and that the human need to create art comes from that. Art allows humans to allow their emotions out and allow for a deeper form of communication that makes human experience possible. Personally, I see art as the outlet for the deeper parts of ourselves that we either can't or don't communicate in other ways. It allows us to be complete people and allow for stability in our minds. It allows us to live better and more fully and art's presence will always be important.
