Aesthetics, or esthetics, is concerned with the philosophical theories that explain the evolution and change in the perspective towards the study of beauty. Humans judge beauty based on what they love and find appealing, whether in life or in nature. These judgments, through creativity, transform into an expression that involves a special perception through feeling, emotion, and imagination. They become an intuition that produces a language of beautiful words, sounds, or images. In other words, aesthetics or the philosophy of art examines the beautiful expression of what humans perceive. This field connects to many human sciences such as literary and artistic criticism, as well as the history of arts, psychology, and sociology. It is also related to philosophy, which has provided fundamental theories and visions of beauty. Nearly every major philosopher throughout human history has pondered this important topic for human life.
