>Thinking that some ugly creatures aren't ugly, or that beauty isn't real and objective, is part of of the aesthetic inversion of our time. To be clear, I think you're claiming: 1. beauty _is_ objective 2. this beauty-is-subjective thing is a recent phenomenon I disagree with both of those claims, but the second one is more interesting to me. At least in the 1700's some people believed that beauty is subjective [1]. But perhaps you consider the 1700's recent? [1] https://oll.libertyfund.org/quotes/david-hume-beauty |
