moderns; they rediscover the poet

delight, but newer generations may delight in formerly scorned poet
if it's socially accept-ed, it's morally good

moral if the state says it's moral
platonic ideas, but ideal is decided by state
poetics are okay as long as it isn't dogma
ideal is irrelevant
particular; individual first, if state allows it
state-run art agrees with their instruction
whatever is beautiful to state
n/a
no real beauty, only wishes fufilled
n/a
universal-all mankind has wish-fufillment
delight--it fufills wishes of writer (and reader)
not either, it is just how it is
