The purpose of this study is to look at the academic background and the implied meaning of S. K. Langer``s ‘feeling’ in order to understand the relationship between feeling and music in her music aesthetics. Langer``s reconstruction of the traditional concept of ‘feeling’ had been based on the fruits of various academic disciplines. Along with the dynamic gestalt appears in a complex process of ‘feeling’, Langer emphasized the evolution of human ‘feeling’ into the active, interpretative thoughts. She applied the concept of such ‘feeling’ to music. As a result, Langer succeeded to confirm that the music reflects ‘the morphology of feeling.’ She also successfully argued that the insight is a central way of cognition for music. Regarding music as a symbol revealing the life of human ‘feeling’, Langer emphasizes the value of music not just as an affective stimulation but a provider for mental and speculative experience.
