Why Beauty Matters

Thanks for this post. I especially appreciate that you addressed the current cultural (shrill) insistence that beauty is entirely in the eye of the beholder. The subjectivity of beauty only goes so far, and our failure to acknowledge the universal nature of beauty (and its importance in feeding our souls) is a way of denying reality. Looking forward to watching the entire Scruton video. Also, since people read words so literally these days, "beauty" might need to be clarified as the manifestation of the good, not a literal reference to whether a person, for instance, is beautiful.
