Aesthetics is broader in scope than the philosophy of art, which comprises one of its branches, It deals not only with the nature and value of the arts but also with those responses to natural objects that find expression in the language of the beautiful and the ugly. 61)
A problem is encountered at the outset, however, for terms such as beautiful and ugly seem too vague in their application and too subjective in their meaning to divide the world successfully into those things that do, end those that do not, exemplify them.
Almost anything might be seen as beautiful by someone or from some point of view; and different people apply the word to quite disparate objects for reasons that often seem to have little or nothing in common. It may be that there is some single underlying belief that motivates all of their judgments. 62)
It may also be, however, that the term beautiful has no sense except as the expression of an attitude, which is in turn attached by different people to quite different states of affairs.
63)
Moreover, in spite of the emphasis laid by philosophers on the terms beautiful and ugly, it is far from evident that they are the most important or most useful either in the discussion and criticism of art or in the description of that which appeals to us in nature To convey what is significant in a poem we might use such terms as ironical, moving, expressive, balanced, and harmonious.
Likewise, in describing a favorite stretch of countryside, we may find more use for peaceful, soft, atmospheric, harsh, and evocative, than for beautiful. 64)
The least that should be said is that beautiful belongs to a class of terms from which it has been chosen as much for convenience’s sake as for any sense that it captures what is distinctive of the class.
At the same time, there seems to Be no clear way of delimiting the class in question — not at least in advance of theory. 65)
Aesthetics must therefore cast its net more widely than the study either of beauty or of other aesthetic concepts if it is to discover the principles whereby it is to be defined.
We are at once returned, therefore, to the vexing question or subject matter: What should a philosopher study in order to understand such ideas as beauty and taste?

答案
而且,尽管哲学家强调“美丽”和“丑陋”这样的字眼,但这远不能说明它们就是在进行艺术评论或者描述迷人的自然景色时最重要或者最有效的词汇。
解析
在句子结构上,in spite of...这一介词结构部分是句子的状语,相当于一个让步状语从句,其中laid by ...是the emphasis的分词后置定语;主句中it为形式主语,而that引导的从句则是真正主语,其中最后一个 that带有一个which引导的定语从句.词汇方面,far from意为“远非”,the discussion and criticism of art指“艺术评论”,而which appeals to us in nature可译为“迷人的自然景色”。
