As often happens in our world, where a concept is used and the case, and is not the case, then the words lose their meaning, and to drag!This happened with the words aesthetics and esthete, who came into our language from the grace of ancient Greece.
esthete and aesthetics - not a dirty word
Aesthetics, in the original sense, is the philosophical notion of a book that reveals the essence of man's knowledge of the world through his sense perceptions.E. Esthete - a person who is able to feel.And since there are no people in the world who can not feel it, we are all in the philosophical understanding of aesthetes.The opposite is the esthete logics.And there are few people, but for some reason, and they blamed the word "esthete" in our time.
Beauty and expediency
Nature tends to expediency, and thus - to beauty.So once considered Aristotle wrote this idea, but, on reflection on the topic a bit, moved on to other issues.Behind him his followers have made it out of this almost random phrase axiom.And there was a philosophical impasse over.For centuries it has descended into the void, but their words are picked up artists, and it turned out that aesthetic - it is not any man, but some are particularly delicate feeling world.
philosophers have given to artists for the use of these terms and do the deeper issues.And word went for a walk among the people, not yet purchased ironic, scornful color.Now, for the majority of ordinary people esthete - is the person who does not understand the surrounding, because, in his opinion, they are too rough.In the Russian language for the definition of this type of people have a precise term - "half-baked", t. E. A person behaves without a goal anyone deceive for profit, but just on a whim, because differently not livecan.
But whatever it was, and the beauty and desirability of the world exist.The relationship between these concepts questionable, but artists are still able to them as a systematized.With the logic they are usually at odds, so the aesthetic world, in the artistic sense of the phrase, ambivalent and pretentious.
Aesthetics - is the science of beauty
When philosophers returned to the abandoned 2000 years theme at the beginning of the twentieth century formed for artists science of beauty - the aesthetics with which try to figure out why one person finds beautiful, and the other - ugly?And some of the successes achieved.It turned out that the object itself is neither beautiful nor ugly.It becomes such only in the feelings of the individual.Then philosophers stand out from the mass of humanity and a special type called these people aesthetes.
Most of us takes his inner world years to 5 canons of beauty as education and then follow them to the end of life.A esthete - is the one that forms for themselves canons of beauty itself, and up to 5 years, and the rest of his life.With such people get real artists, pioneers, love to distraction and other troubled person.
Normal portion aesthetics helpful
If all of a person's life to exclude the notion of the beautiful and aesthetic, it zahryukaet pig the next day.That beauty is often keeps us from ugly deeds.Some do not even hung up just because a person looks in this action is not aesthetically pleasing.And people in the arts, such as the actors in the theater, even among themselves trying soritsya beautiful and aesthetically pleasing.Most would take with them in this example, rather than anything else.The same actor "scoring nose up" can hardly be called beautiful.
Normally as designers caught on aesthetics.They household and do useful things attractive in appearance.And nice that it does not claim to their exclusivity and teaches us.But employees of the so-called haute couture several replays.For aesthetics - this is not a mockery of human nature.And from their researches sometimes cloying goal.For example, a woman should not, no matter what anyone claimed to be like a nail.Golden section law does not exist for the geometry.
So, everything that is not in the measure, it is not sensible, even beauty.
