Beauty ...

Hello everyone! Today I go to talk about an interesting video that I watched this video is called A Darwinian theory of beauty by Denis Dutton.
The theory try to explain the concept of beauty, it is, indeed, a very difficult topic to explain, because we can consider beautiful a lot of different things. Dutton talks about three categories where the people found beauty, like art works, natural landscapes and human beings.
Dutton also says, that the consideration of explain beauty by the social culture it is not hundred percent determinant, Dutton thinks it is in the evolution of the human beings where we can explain why consider beauty something.
Is for that why Dutton used the theory of Darwin to explain, that while the human beings evolved they want more comfort, a better life, and Dutton says we found beauty in the things they are well done.
I don’t think it is correct explain only by the evolution of us the beauty, because the concept of what is beautiful it is changed a lot across the time and the history. This is because many factors are involved, such as the economy, the modernity, the policy, the globalization, etc, all this factors are inside a very same topic, and this is the culture. Maybe the taste and the concept of what is beauty it is evolved with us, but the culture and society influence in our conception of beauty.
Finally every person in the world is different so what we think it is beautiful is not the same that the other person thinks.
Well I hope you can think about this. For now this is all! Bye (:
