disvalue

Ladies.Be it so, And if our levity disvalue vows, Or what may most oblige us: may like censure Impeach our perish'd honours.

The process is external to the aesthetic fact In this case also; for the only feeling linked with that is the feeling of aesthetic value and disvalue, of the beautiful and of the ugly.

Absence of value is not sufficient to cause disvalue, but activity and passivity must be struggling between themselves, without the one getting the better of the other; hence the contradiction, and the disvalue of the activity that is embarrassed, contested, or interrupted.

The disvalue would become nonvalue; activity would give place to passivity, with which it is not at war, save when there effectively is war.
