In his recorded remarks for the symposium "Can Beauty Save the World?" held at McGill University, Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor reflects on why beauty resists tidy definitions. Beauty, he suggests, is inseparable from truth: we are moved by beauty because it reveals deep meaning, and we understand meaning through what we find beautiful. This productive circularity, Taylor argues, is not a flaw but a pathway into the mystery of what makes life meaningful.

Our symposium was sponsored by the John Templeton Foundation
