Science, the Arts, and the Humanities |

Passion, creativity,
and the urge for expression are essential human qualities that
inspire science, the arts, and the humanities, and thus constitute
a common bond among them. The Initiative for Science Literacy
helps people explore, discuss, and cultivate the intellectual
and emotional links between science, the arts, and the humanities.
People can value, appreciate, and enjoy science without a deep
understanding of specific details, just as they can appreciate
music without a specialized knowledge of music theory, or appreciate
literature, the theater, and the visual arts without being experts
in those fields. Programs of the Initiative focus on the relationships,
similarities, and differences in inquiry, creativity, and personal
expression among scientists, artists, and humanists. A specific
goal is to give musicians, artists, writers, and performers –
present and future – an appreciation of science and enable them
to see and understand the connections between science and the
arts. |
