Publisher's Synopsis
""The Meaning of Beauty: A Theory of Aesthetics"" by W.T. Stace is a philosophical book that explores the concept of beauty and its relationship to art and aesthetics. Stace argues that beauty is not just a subjective experience, but rather an objective quality that can be objectively measured and evaluated. He also discusses the different theories of aesthetics and how they have evolved over time. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the history of aesthetics and the different approaches that have been taken to understand beauty. Stace's theory of aesthetics is based on the idea that beauty is an objective property that can be experienced by all individuals, and that it is not simply a matter of personal taste or preference. Overall, ""The Meaning of Beauty"" is a thought-provoking and insightful book that will appeal to anyone interested in philosophy, art, or aesthetics.1929.
