The Eye of the Beholder: What Is Beauty? (Modern Mind & Self) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

What do we mean when we call something beautiful?

In The Eye of the Beholder: What Is Beauty?, JD Arden strips away the clichés and easy answers, diving deep into the shifting ground beneath our ideas of art, attractiveness, and worth. From ancient statues to street graffiti, from symmetry to scars, Arden leads us through a landscape where every judgment is up for grabs and every standard is ripe for rebellion. Sharp, philosophical, and surprisingly witty, this book will challenge what you think you know about taste, envy, and what really stands the test of time.

For anyone who’s ever wondered why we chase the lovely, fear the ugly, or find themselves moved by something no one else seems to notice—this one’s for you.
