About “The beautiful”
The book examines Beauty not as an inherent quality of objects or processes, but as a phenomenon arising from a specific set of mental activities and habits. It focuses on the nature of the human response to what is labeled Beautiful or Ugly, arguing that the application of these terms depends on the active role of thought and feeling in each instance.
