Speaking of Beauty

Sampul Depan
A critic of the English language here reflects on beauty and the language that it inspires in authors from Kant to Keats, Hawthorne to Housman. He considers some of the theories of beauty and their terms of reference and appreciation. And he examines the relation of beauty to form - form as found in landscape, persons, poems, paintings, and musical phrases; and form as in the difficult question of beauty and its wild neighbor, the sublime.
