| Abstract | This paper looks at aesthetics as a cultural system. This is to say that a culture will be viewed in terms of a “worldview” and preferences in life that form an identity of people within a society. The case I am exploring comes from a heritage the Sinhala people have shared with their land and history in a web of relationships across time. Components for this understanding are introduced as a structure and functional process determining the way people cognize a culture based on perceived tastes or sentiments. Anthropology offers the tools for viewing and representing people in their own terms to understand diverse strands of a culture as a holistic notion of beliefs, things, and sense of place. |
