«La beauté m'insupporte» is the aesthetics essay by Pierre Sansot, published by Payot in paperback (261 pages, in French).
Pierre Sansot explores beauty in its many faces: the body, appearance, everyday life. Far from a stable ideal, he presents it as an uncomfortable experience, capable of producing both joy and unease, shaped by culture, historical moment and individual sensibility. He thus questions the social canons that seek to fix it.
The book, originally published in 2004, is part of the Manuels Payot collection. Thematically, it falls within aesthetics, bodily beauty and seduction.
Recommended for readers interested in philosophy and aesthetics, as well as for those wishing to question contemporary ideals of beauty.
Pierre Sansot was a French anthropologist and writer.
