In the Eyes of the Beholder is an exploration of the symbiotic relationship between viewing a work of art and the emotions and memories it evokes. Fifteen artworks were selected. Each piece was assigned to two different people with no other information than to use as a writing prompt. In some instances, an immediate emotional response was aroused and the writing flowed. In other cases, the work evoked a personal memory and led the writer to reflect on current sociological themes or current events.
The resulting works span a wide range of topics, genres, and writing styles; but each piece is unique and made the author stretch and expand their writing skills. We all have a story to tell about the piece, and that story may have nothing to do with the artist's intent in creating the artwork. That is the seminal point of this book. Skip to content.

An exploration of physical beauty in Austen's works reveals that, although she is influenced by both literary and social tradition, her Christian worldview also influences her presentation of physical beauty. She appreciates beauty but assigns no moral value to it. Her characters are not all beautiful; the beautiful are not all virtuous; and all are equally capable of good and evil. Thus, Austen encourages readers to judge characters by what they can control, their behavior, not by what they cannot control, their physical appearance.
By focusing on the beholder of beauty and by emphasizing personal integrity without denigrating physical beauty, Austen broadens her depictions of beauty to include goodness; and she makes virtue, rather than physi.
