520 $a The purpose of this study was to develop through literary synthesis a perspective of aging as process of self-cultivation in which the ontological dimension of art experience serves as creative self-transformation in late adulthood. Based on analysis and interpretation of literary materials, key concepts from Western and Chinese traditions of self-cultivation were compared and contrasted in regard to conceptual differences and commonalities. Selected ideas were synthesized to support an alternative, positive view of aging. The importance of art studies in old age as process of self-realization was explicated.
520 $a Analysis and interpretation of selected literary materials from the fields of history and philosophy of aging, Western psychology of self-actualization, Confucian and Neo-Confucian philosophy of self-cultivation, and Chinese aesthetics (i.e., Taoist art), served methodologically in outlining theoretical commonalities and differences. Data were selected and organized. The literary synthesis integrated thematically key principles from both traditions. Primary constituents for examination and synthesis for this study were culturalogical method and heuristic research methods. Both of these were utilized from an onto-hermeneutical perspective which discloses the totality of wholes and parts of correspondence and coherence between the hermeneutical and ontological circles.
520 $a The results of this study advocated an alternative, positive view of aging based on Confucian and Neo-Confucian views of self-cultivation and Taoist onto-cosmology. It was suggested, that aging, embraced by the totality and wholeness of the self-being of Life, may constitute in itself self-cultivation.
520 $a The ontological dimension of art experience, as set forth in Taoist philosophy of art, provided suggestions for self-transformation in late adulthood towards self-realization. It was concluded, that art experience as authentic manifestation of self-cultivation may serve as transformative effort toward realization of aging as self-cultivation.
520 $a Implications of this study suggested its importance toward a culture of life-span development, the use of heuristic-phenomenological inquiry in the search for meaning in life experience and its incorporation into a curriculum for transcendence. The importance of the ontological dimension of art experience as heuristic and epistemic device in all suggested areas of application was implied.
