Ape to Apollo: Aesthetics and the Idea of Race in the 18th Century
David Bindman
‘Race’ was essentially a construction of the 18th century, a means by which the Enlightenment could impose rational order on human variety. This title argues that ideas of beauty were from the beginning inseparable from race, as Europeans judged the civility and aesthetic capacity of other races by their appearance.
