Review: Aiste Celkyte, The Stoic Theory of Beauty
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
The book under review, The Stoic Theory of Beauty by Aiste Celkyte, attempts to reconstruct Stoic aesthetics, or more precisely, to find the Stoic concept of beauty. The author is convinced that despite the fact that Stoic thinkers considered beauty to be indifferent, it had a certain value for them. She also shows that it is possible to extract from the extant texts a specific conception of beauty as a functionally compositional entity. For the Stoics, according to Celkyte, beauty was associated with a certain internal arrangement (or proportionality), and at the same time such an arrangement had to be functional with respect to the fulfillment of the end of the object in question. The present review traces how the author arrives at the formulation of this aesthetic theory and considers the problems that this approach entails.
