This study is intended to research aesthetics inferred from Rorty's liberal ironist as an educational ideal. The result is as follows. Rorty argued that postmodern bourgeois liberal is the best notion of society which we can actually choose. In that postmodern bourgeois liberal society, liberal ironist is a hero. Because he is free from metaphysical system, and he incessantly pursuits a new vocabulary and conversation for the better practice. And he is characterized as a man of freedom, creation and aesthetic. Therefore I concluded that liberal ironist is an artist who has an aesthetic sensitivity which means confirmation to contingency, desire for self-expression, and understanding of metaphor.
