Love and Beauty

More about the book

Exploring the intersection of love and beauty, Guy Sircello presents a groundbreaking theory that emphasizes the qualities that embody beauty as the true objects of love. He argues that the pleasure derived from love is fundamentally "erotic," yet distinct from sexuality. By linking premodern and modern perspectives, Sircello critiques contemporary views that isolate aesthetics from their inherent connection to the human experience, challenging readers to reconsider the cultural and psychological separations of beauty and the body.
