History of Ugliness

This book is the continuation of The History of Beauty. After all, beauty and ugliness are concepts that signify each other. With ugliness we express the opposite of beauty. So what we need to do is to define the nature of one to understand the nature of the other. However, many manifestations of ugliness that have spread over the centuries are quite rich and surprising, contrary to popular belief. The History of Ugliness also offers us these examples. And by the hand of a skillful writer who moves his pen wisely...
