I think he lived in a time where christianity was stifling to the art. He thinks that there there is a certain rigidity. It sounds like he's against. I can't liken olisten to draw thel sam harris, exclusily, mike old richard dawkin's speeches. So i read this criticism that that hume is being a bit circular in his enormative theory ofbeauty. But he's not saying that's the definition of beauty. The definition of beauty is that it will excites certain passions in people,. when they're in right t freingem.
