Movies, music, wiriting, all human arts, are made to make their audience feel something. "Entertaining" is only a small and honestly ill-defined subset of this, no more valid than any other approach.
- kbrkbr 2y agoI don't think analyzing the black square or Ulysses, or Arnold Schönberg's works (just random examples, I could go on and on) in terms of if and what they make you feel is an ill fated course of action. It's also not what people actually do. On the other hand a lot of other stuff can be broadly analyzed in terms of making people feel something. Painkillers, excuses, hugs, titles. So it seems your generalization is neither necessary nor sufficient for "human arts".
