Is Beauty the Goal of the Arts? To answer this we must first consider the nature of beauty. In western ideas of nesthetics the most comprehensive philosophy is that first advanced by Plotinus and later developed by the German philosophers of the eigh- teenth
of the threefold aspect century of the perception
of beauty, The three essentials are:-. The ultimate of beauty (the transcendental
quality (the objective aspect) and 3. The mind perceiving the quality in the
object (the subjective aspect). Realising these three things to be necessary for the perception of beauty we understand how beauty and the arls are regarded as a means where- by the individual may come in con- tnet with Universality in its manifes tation as beauty.
Relation to Nature The relation of art to nature is an Important point for we cannot con- ceive that art is able to put some- thing into nature that is not already there. Rather we should take it that the artist is able to see something in nature which is not ordinarily per ceived, and therefore can show us, in a work of art, an aspect of nature which we should not see for our selves. This illustrates the advanced development of the faculty of in- tullion in the true creative artist.
The signs by which we can identify this quality which we call beauty have been variously expressed by different thinkers, but are summed up by Dr. J. H. Cousins in the word {"integra- tion" or wholeness," or when seen in motion as "orderly evolution." We see whenever we examine a work of art that it obeys certain laws of order, proportion, and harmony, not because the artist set out to illustrate those laws, but because in creating a beautiful object he has automatic- ally fulfilled them.
In Asia ideas of beauty and the arts go back many centuries earlier than those of European philosophers. In China Confucius emphasized the value of art for its influence on Lord-in-morals and behaviour. The Tuolit Wulting and then Captain of the school on the other hand valued the Corps of Gentlemen-at-Arms In arts as a means to contemplation and Queen Victoria's court.
