Philosophy of art, science, etc

Philosophy of art, science, etc There is no such thing or scientific subject such as 'philosophy of art, science, music, etc" in the narrow or strict sense. Activities that are labelled as such are reflections on or thinking and talking ABOUT (second order activities compared to the first order activities of DOING art, music, science, and other) socio-cultural practices. Philosophy (as love of wisdom) provides insights into and understanding of anything and by means of such insights and understanding one MIGHT arrive at wisdom. Such 'philosophical' thinking about/reflecting on and talking about first order activities and practices may or may not assist in 'wisdom'. ulrich 28/3/2015
