Seerveld is convinced that philosophical aesthetics-systematic reflection on the nature and task of human imaginative life-will be normative when the thought is wholesome, edible, worth chewing, and builds the body of a community with joyful shalom. Normative Aesthetics, introduced by Lambert Zuidervaart, aims to spell out some of what this aesthetic imperative means for human imaginative acts, for the arts, and for other acts and institutions where aesthetic functions play a role.

Autorenporträt
Calvin Seerveld (born 1930) is a Christian philosopher and scholar known for his work in aesthetics and biblical worldview studies. Deeply influenced by the Reformational philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd and Dirk Vollenhoven, Seerveld emphasized the importance of art and imagination in the life of faith. His writings, including "Rainbows for the Fallen World" and "Bearing Fresh Olive Leaves", advocate for a distinctly Christian approach to culture, arguing that artistic expression should be a joyful and integral part of God's creation mandate. His work has shaped generations of artists and thinkers within the Reformed tradition.
