More about the book

Exploring the evolution of the concept of beauty, the book contrasts 'warm' metaphysics with the 'cold' perspective rooted in Plato. It delves into the thoughts of significant intellectuals, including Nietzsche, Benjamin, and Adorno, who contribute to a fragmented yet hopeful vision of beauty in a post-metaphysical context. The work provides a comprehensive analysis of how beauty has been interpreted throughout history, highlighting key figures and their philosophical contributions to the discourse.
