The results often take the forms of educational innovation and progress. Because mounting costs of teacher salaries, educational materials, and teaching aids are currently putting pressure on private school finance, further support from government, communities, industry, business, and endowments is drastically needed.

His argument is made poetically, is devoid of scientific evidence, and is tailored for its 18th century audience. Schiller shows how art has the power to unify society and balance the individual, inspiring action for the apathetic and encouraging rationality in the over-zealous ideologue. Today, our fractured society suffers from both lazy cynicism and emotional fanaticism. In this paper, I attempt to update Schiller"s project, showing its relevance today by supporting it with further philosophical argument and contemporary science. Scientific developments in the fields of moral psychology and neuroscience made long after Schiller"s life have added credibility to his ideas about the importance of art and how it interacts with human nature. Nearly everyone recognizes the need for unification in our fractured society, and I hope to make the case that art may be the very thing that makes this possible.
