Herbert Read - Beauty and the beast. A. Hilary Armstrong - The divine enhancement of earthly beauties; the Hellenic and Platonic tradition
'...Read...gives new meanings to the basic concepts of the beautiful and the ugly....[and] moves into psychoanalysis, illuminating especially the nature of ugliness....Armstrong is the leading scholar and proponent of Neoplatonism in the English language....Beauty is not so much an aesthetic appreciation as it is a tremendous power.'
