El arte griego a la luz del planteamiento estético de Platón y Plotino: de la belleza universal del ethos al carácter múltiple de lo bello como particularidad del pathos
Abstract
The following article analyzes the philosophical conception of Plato and Plotinus about beauty and its correspondence with Greek art. The Platonic position discusses the beautiful according to the guidelines of harmony, order, symmetry and proportion, so that, if it can allude to a preponderance of ethos, it has a sculptural correlation with the classical period. For his part, Plotinus bases the beauty on the basis of a multiple appreciation, that is, he admits pathos, an aspect that is linked to Hellenistic sculpture. According to the previous one, a dialogue will be established between the philosophical discourse and the artistic representation.
