Abstract

Jonathan Edwards (1703–1758) was a preacher and philosopher of beauty. Beauty, relational in nature, was understood and expressed by him in such relationships as proportionality, symmetry, harmony, and love. Edwards articulated ideas about God as Trinity, Christ, the Holy Spirit, soteriology, being, community, and ethics in aesthetic terminology, a language of beauty. For Edwards, beauty was the structure of being, authentic communal life, and genuine religious experience.
