Lovely piece. I did not appreciate that catharsis was more to do with purification than purgation.
The opening, lamenting separation of arts and sciences in education, resonates with me. I’m happy to report that at least in some circles, the focus upon STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and their integration has been broadened to STEAM, the extra ‘A’ being for the arts. This is meant to put more focus on creativity in these fields.
