In the article "Beauty and Ugliness" it is about the theories of beauty in two categories; defining beauty and its function and the significance. It shows the different definition of beauty from different philosophers. According to Socrates’s point of view “ any beautiful object is at the same time not beautiful when compared with a higher beauty.” He also defines the beauty of physical and appearance as “ untrustworthy,” because physical appearance changes over time. Socrates argues that the purpose of beauty should be good and delight, not just the object functions well but evil. Therefore, a person beauty should be from the inside out.
