break, breaks (noun) Explanation: I believe this is the correct word because in deconstructionism the term is used as a fracture, separation of parts. It is not used as something becoming ineffective, losing control, collapse, decompose like a whole system is falling apart like in the word “breakdown”. There is also a semantic difference in “break down” and “breakdown”. Please read the passages below and notice the usage of the word “break”. DECONSTRUCTIONISM Croce's Aesthetics Croce—and undoubtedly the political situation in Italy in 1917 played a role in this—was anxious to assert the importance of art for humanity, and his assertion of it is full of feeling. And the claim marks a decisive break from earlier doctrine: form is now linked with universality rather that with particular feelings. . . . In an article he wrote for the Encyclopaedia Britannica, speaking of such ‘psychophysical phenomena’, he writes: …such ‘expression’, albeit conscious, can rank as expression only by metaphorical licence, when compared with the spiritual or aesthetic expression which alone expresses, that is to say gives to the feeling a theoretical form and converts into language, song, shape. It is in the difference between feeling as contemplated (poetry, in fact), and feeling as enacted or undergone, that lies the catharsis, the liberation from the affections, the calming property which has been attributed to art; and to this corresponds the aesthetic condemnation of work of art if or in far as immediate feeling breaks into them or uses them as an outlet. (PPH 219). . . . Dewey's Aesthetics Some contemporary feminist aestheticians have come to realize that Dewey shares many of their concerns, for example their rejection of mind/body dualism, their democratic instincts, their contextualism, and their tendency to break down traditional distinctions (Seigfried 1996b, Duran 2001). . . . Emotion signifies breaks in experience which are then resolved through reflective action. Objects become interesting as conditions for realizing harmony. Thought is then incorporated into them as their meaning. . . . Not only is there community of form in the arts but also community of substance, which is the topic of Dewey's ninth chapter. The creative process begins with a “total seizure,” an inclusive qualitative whole (a “mood”) which is then articulated, and even continues after articulation. This qualitative whole determines the development of a poem into parts, and when this does not happen we become aware of breaks. DICTIONARY DEFINITIONS break noun 69. an act or instance of breaking; disruption or separation of parts; fracture; rupture: There was a break in the window. 70. an opening made by breaking; gap: The break in the wall had not been repaired. 71. a rush away from a place; an attempt to escape: a break for freedom. 72. a sudden dash or rush, as toward something: When the rain lessened, I made a break for home. 73. a suspension of or sudden rupture in friendly relations. break•down noun 1. a breaking down, wearing out, or sudden loss of ability to function efficiently, as of a machine. 2. a loss of mental or physical health; collapse.
