Using essentially the philosophical and documentary, methodologies of language and logical analysis and deductions, analogical inference; and historical inspection of documents, the paper examined the issues and arguments involved in Aesthetics as an epistemological concept. These were in terms of aesthetic: knowledge, faculty of knowing and knowledge that can be packaged and cultivated in rational ways to learners in society. It is recommended that aesthetic: learning curricula and teacher education programs of secondary schools should be restructured to properly accommodate the various aspect of aesthetic learning and the various facets of human knowledge and knowing.
