K etomu topiku byl tak skazat' *epilog*: The beauty is in the eyes of beholder. Istina genial'naya i prostaya.
IMHO, krasota ponyatie sub'ektivnoe, rastyazhimoe i neopredelennoe. Chto krasivo dlya odnogo - bezobrazno dlya drugogo i edinogo mneniya tut naverno byt' ne mozhet. Naverno v krasote dolzhen byt' smysl.
"Ya krasiv: kiparisu podoben moi stan,
Boroda slovno shyolk, shyoki - veshni tyul'pan,
No zachem tak staralsya Izvechnyi Vayatel',
Esli vsya eta vidimost' tol'ko obman?" (O.Hayam)
Kogda chto-to ili kto-to nadeleno krasotoi, no lisheno zhizni ili smysla - to eto pustoe. Tot, kto pytaetsya ocenit', dolzhen uvidet' krasotu glazami smotryashego: dlya lyuboi materi ee rebenok samyi krasivyi, dlya vlyublennogo - ego predmet obazhaniya samyi prekrasnyi, dlya vayatelya - ego proizvedenie prekrasno, dazhe esli drugim eto ne vidno. Oni vidyat eto cherez prizmu svoei lyubvi, nezhnosti, abazhaniya, very. Poroi, chelovek sovsem ne krasiv s tochki zreniya obshestva, no v nem/nei stol'ko sharma i harizmy, chto vsem etot chelovek prosto kazhetsya prelestnym, dushkoi i t.d. Odno mogu skazat' - krasota dolzhna byt' dobroi i nesti dobro.
Nu konechno sluchayutsya i excessy
Kak naprimer v anekdote, kogda druz'ya uprosili molodogo nakonec pokazat' im svoyu moloduyu zhenu i tut vxodit: krivaya, kosaya, gorbataya, kvadratnaya, voobshem ves' nabor prelestei. Oni udivlenno razinuv rot smotryat na nee, a schastlivyi muzh pozhav plechami govorit:
"NU ESLI VI NE LYUBITE PICASSO!"
O krasote voobshe
