Aesthetic
             
  “At the center of aesthetic theory at the turn of the eighteenth century is the semi-mystical doctrine of the symbol. For Romanticism, indeed, the symbol becomes the panacea for all problems. Within it, a whole set of conflicts which were thought to be insoluble in ordinary life — between subject and object, the universal and the particular, the sensuous and the conceptual, material and spiritual, order and spontaneity — could be magically resolved.”
—Eagleton, Literary Theory

In 1927, just as "talkies" were catching on, Paramount Studios acquired a 2,700 acre parcel of land in the hills between Malibu and The Valley. The studio built numerous large-scale sets on the ranch, including a huge replica of early San Francisco, European village streets, and a Old Western town.

And the history continues. The Paramount Ranch is still a working movie ranch. Most recently, it was used for interior and exterior scenes of the town of Mintern, California in the series Carnivàle.
