John Armstrong
The Secret of Beauty
Philosopher John Armstrong takes us on a captivating journey, spanning the tangible and the sublime, between what can be perceived by the senses and what remains elusive to interpretation.
A journey that blends philosophy with experience, and attempts to discover the secret that moves our emotions when we see beautiful things.
It opens multiple doors for us to understand beauty: sometimes in the curves of exquisite lines, and the fascination of colors that dominate their perfection, sometimes in pleasure and its deep meaning, and at other times as a legend that we can only admire in our inability to reach it.
This book is not a dry academic lesson, but a literary narrative that contemplates beauty in everything that surrounds us: in bodies, faces, morals, in art, nature, language, and in the fleeting moments of life.
