سيكولوجيا الجمال

by Ethel Dench Puffer Howes, رفيدة جمال ثابت (ترجمة)

Ethel Dench Puffer, Mrs Howes (1872-1950) was the author of The Psychology of Beauty (1905). "THE human being who thrills to the experience of beauty in nature and in art does not forever rest with that experience unquestioned. The day comes when he yearns to pierce the secret of his emotion, to discover what it is, and why, that has so stung him-to defend and to justify his transport to himself and to others. He seeks a reason for the faith that is in him. And so have arisen the speculative theories of the nature of beauty, on the one hand, and the studies of concrete beauty and our feelings about it, on the other. "

An absolute must read for any artist, creator, or visionary.

I expected more, there's layers of meaning in both definitions of Beauty and Psychology combined altogether, Ethel kind of fell short in portraying the complex factors which quantify the social and mathematical realms of what beauty is.

Maybe it was pure dated, or outdated? It just didn't dock at the port.
