Beauty

It should be clear by now that the word beauty has multiple meanings which are sometimes very far apart. Describing a woman as beautiful would depend upon the culture. Although, this fine distinction between cultures is beginning to disappear. Describing music, poetry, prose, painting,sculpture, a place, a thought or idea, a language, a religious experience, a sunrise or sunset as beautiful becomes interesting when you look for a commonality. The other interesting question about beauty that must be asked is are all of these things beautiful or representations of beauty. Finally, are there cultural differences?
