Do you agree the concept of beauty is something innate in human nature?
If so, you might also agree a culture always can find its way back to truth, reality and beauty.
Unfortunately, it seems like nations, as well as entire cultures (like that of the West) has to hit rock bottom before being able to strive in the right direction again.
“If so, you might also agree a culture always can find its way back to truth, reality and beauty.”
That was always true before, when societies might have disagreement about the qualities those things entail but always agreed that they existed.
But in the post-modern world we live in the very concept of truth and beauty are being attacked, how can one create something beautiful if he doesn’t believe that beauty exists, how can one find truth if he doesn’t believe there is such a thing as truth?
Until we find our way back to believing in those things, none of the other thing are possible.
