About The Book

What is it that makes something beautiful? Is beauty solely in the eye of the beholder or something deeper more significant? In Beauty (and the Banana) Nixon writes as an introductory book for Christian leaders providing the reader an overview of the historical hermeneutical and heuristic considerations of beauty. Using the artwork Comedian (a banana taped to a wall) by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan as a springboard Nixon addresses various fundamental factors of beauty--ontology (being) teleology (form and understanding) and immutability (transcendence and eternality). Integrating poetry and classical ideals throughout Beauty (and the Banana)s response to the above questions may surprise all who read--beauty is more than meets the eye.
