História da feiúra

Eco delves into philosophical and cultural angles that challenge common notions of beauty. I wonder what motivated him to focus on ugliness as a meaningful concept.

Some descriptions made ugliness feel almost beautiful in its own way, which made me think about how perceptions of beauty are so subjective. Did others feel this tension too?

Eco seems to argue that ugliness isn’t just a flaw but an essential part of artistic expression. I’m curious how this perspective might influence contemporary art criticism.
