Description

A comprehensive two-volume study and defense of beauty and art, Aesthetics is Dietrich von Hildebrand's magnum opus. Written in the early 1970s, it reflects his lifetime of reflection on the nature of beauty and its significance in human experience. Hildebrand's philosophical exploration of beauty is deeply rooted in his personal background, having grown up surrounded by Europe's leading artists, musicians, and writers. His conversion to Christianity at a young age also played a pivotal role in shaping his thoughts on beauty. The Aesthetics has now been translated into English, marking the launch of the Hildebrand Press. This publication is a significant milestone in the preservation of von Hildebrand's work, offering insights into his unique perspective on beauty and its place in human life.
