THE BIRTH OF THE TRUE, THE GOOD,
AND THE BEAUTIFUL: TOWARD AN
INVESTIGATION OF THE STRUCTURES
OF SOCIAL THOUGHT
ABSTRACT
Purpose – To determine where, when, how, and wherefore
European social theory hit upon the formula of “the True, the
Good, and the Beautiful,” and how its structural position as a
skeleton for the theory of action has changed.
PREFACE
A recurring feature of many, though by no means all, productions of
social theory and the philosophy of action is the development of a
core architectonic – an orientating analytic scheme that partitions
the subject at hand in ways that are not merely theoretically
relevant, but perhaps even in some senses, that determine the range
of possible thinking. Consider the impressive work of Habermas
(1984 [1981], 1987 [1981]), which has involved a dogged attempt
to systematize the relation between a number of past architectonics.
Most fundamental has been his assumption that there is a triadic
structure of human engagement with the world, a “trisection” of
reason (Bernstein, 1997 [1989]) for which he has been criticized, as
if, prior to his work, reason remained whole and entire. Yet the
notion of such a tripartition was built into most of the analytic tools
that were available to Habermas … as it is to us.
This structure now is refracted in a number of different ways, but
its most fundamental – and earliest – incarnation is that of the True,
the Good, and the Beautiful. (The second key structure is a
tripartition of the faculties, which must be left to the side for now.) It
may be that we do not understand our own thought – what we can
and cannot do with it – until we understand our position in the space
of possibilities established by this architectonic. That thought
motivates a larger study in progress, for which this serves as
prolegomenon. It can be seen as an initial attempt to do for social
thought what Levi-Strauss hoped to do for myth: to see the outlines
of the most basic structures that are used in the production of
thought, how they map onto one another, and the possible
transformations that may connect them.
Strangely enough, it appears that the origins of this structure
have never yet been explicated, perhaps because of an incorrect
assumption that they go back to ancient Greece. (Habermas himself
at one point 1990 [1983], pp. 2f, 18, misattributed this structure to
Weber, as well as suggested that it was fundamental to Kant’s
approach.) Here I wish to sketch a preliminary genealogical
exploration of this basic structure of the True, the Good, and the
Beautiful.
INTRODUCTION
In 1853 Victor Cousin published his Lectures on the True, the Good,
and the Beautiful, a compelling statement of his eclectic philosophy,
one that he believed could be summarized as a pursuit of these
three values. This allowed him to attempt to wed a somewhat neo-
Kantian theory of knowledge and action to his religious sensibilities,
and was to perhaps be the most important influence on French
social thought since Descartes.
A number of wonderful ironies lie here in his adoption of what I
will henceforward call “the” triad – the True, the Good, and the
Beautiful. First, Cousin used it to organize his theory of the human
faculties, when the triad developed by severing the pursuit of the
excellences from the adumbration of faculties (also see Guyer, 2014,
Vol. 1: 27; cf. 34). Second, Cousin used it to preach a sentimental
theism, when this triad was formed only through the rejection of
theism. Finally, this was used to finalize a division of the human soul
into orthogonal dimensions, a project that dovetailed with the
emerging value theory of neo-Kantians in Germany, while the triad
was first used to oppose any such decomposition.
Here, I will briefly trace the key processes that led to the
development and consolidation of this triad, which has had a
remarkable holding power over Western thought since the mid-
eighteenth century. I will speed quite quickly through the work that
is preparatory to my story; my glosses will be simplistic, but not, at
the level of specificity intended here, contested. I then move more
carefully where I am constructing the argument about the
development of the triad.
It is often assumed that there is some precedent for the triad in the
works of the ancient Greek philosophers, which is quite untrue.
There was, however, an intellectual nugget that was to play a major
role in the development of the triad, namely the idea that some
persons might have a certain type of beauty/nobility and goodness –
kalos kai agathos, or kalos kagathos for short (here see Norton,
1995, on the history of this concept).
It is also often assumed that the triad harks back to the medieval
doctrine of the transcendentals, but this is equally untrue. The
“transcendentals” were terms that were coextensive with Being –
thus to say that Good is a transcendental is to say that Being, in so
far as it is being, is good (e.g., Aquinas, Truth Qu 21, art. 1 1954,
pp. 3–6). “Goodness” and “Truth” only appear as different because
Being enters into different relationships with the human soul and
mind. Although Beauty might appear along with Truth, Goodness,
and a whole host of positive terms (as in the works of Pseudo-
Dionysius, 1987), the triad of transcendentals was always that of the
One, the True, and the Good, and claims made by Eco (1986 [1959],
p. 21) as to the status of the Beautiful as a transcendental have
been shown by Aertsen (1991, 2012) to be without merit.
Further, the triad did not arise from the Beautiful being swapped
in for the “One” in the set of transcendentals – rather, there was a
more indirect route, for it was a deliberate return to the principles of
kalos kagathos that first brought the Beautiful to assume a place of
equality with the Good and the True, and this then proved
interconnected with further changes in the understanding of the
human faculties and virtues.
At the level of sweeping generality necessary in these prefatory
remarks, it is accurate to say that at the end of the medieval period,
the great distinction was that made between the intellect and the
will – what Ficino (see Platonic Theology Book II.1.1, 1.14 V.8.8,
IX.1.3, XIV.2.2, XIV.3.5.6; 2001, pp. 93, 97; 2002, p. 85; 2003, p.
11; 2004, pp. 227, 229, 247) called the “two Platonic wings” on
which the soul ascends to the Divine – though this bifurcation was
often mapped onto two different triads.1 One was the
transcendentals (leaving “the One” without a human correlate), and
the other was the more orthodox triad of the attributes of God as
being Wise, Good, and Powerful. Here it was God’s power that
lacked a comfortable analogue in the human constitution.
But in any case, there was a general reliance on a division
between intellect and will (with senses, judgment, and so on
occupying more particular positions) that reinforced a distinction
between the True and the Good, a template that had no place for
Beauty. The centrality of this bifurcation was in no way shaken by
the new materialism associated with Hobbes, or the less dramatic
form of Descartes. The most important change for our story came
from a most unlikely source – the analysis of manners.
Taste and Neo-Platonism
What destabilized this system were two new, related, concerns that
swept the writing classes of European society. The first was a new
focus on taste. Inspired by reflections on a new cosmopolitanism
that belied the self-assurance of previous courtly visions of the
perfect life, Europeans, starting with Baltasar Gracian, began to
puzzle over the nature of taste. Taste could not be approached with
the same underlying search for certainty that characterized not only
the theological philosophies, but even that of Descartes, with its
search for “clear and distinct” conceptions. Most important, taste
required a capacity to orient to variations in quality that had a
certain amount of irreducible and unpredictable incommensurability.
It thus implied the introduction of a kind of horizontal differentiation
in a world view that had tended to revolve around vertical
differentiations.
This early literature on taste was not wholly revolutionary, for it
built upon themes common in earlier advice-type books. Yet we shall
see that the idea of taste brought with it different implicit emphases,
and, as others have argued, suggested a new relation between the
intellect and sensibility. Like the later works on taste, many medieval
works had counseled discretion, though as part of a nexus turning
on reserve, caution, and self-control (Arditi, 1998, p. 57). But in the
fourteenth century, such reserve and suspicion were increasingly
connected to a fascinating theoretical problem: the mere presence of
variation across persons. Adovardo Alberti in Florence wrote, “The
world is so full of human variety, differences of opinion, changes of
heart, perversity of customs, ambiguity, diversity, and obscurity of
values. The world is amply supplied with fraudulent, false,
perfidious, bold, audacious, and rapacious men. Everything in the
world is profoundly unsure. One has to be far-seeing, alert, and
careful in the face of fraud, traps, and betrayals.” As McLean (2007,
p. 42, from whom I take this quotation) emphasizes, what was
looked for in others was an honest constancy, and so the Florentines
worked carefully on faking this whenever it proved advantageous.
But note that Alberti lumped differences in human constitution and
custom with the vices like fraud and dissimulation, as all of these
made it difficult to read another person.
In the Renaissance, the proliferation of stage metaphors
accompanied a shift from an apparent mood of paranoia and
defensiveness to a focus on skilled playing (Arditi, 1998, p. 86).
Frustration with the accomplished duplicity encouraged thereby
seems to have inspired the famous work of Baldesar Castiglione,
who emphasized the greatest skill of all – the art of appearing
artless, what Castiglione (2002 [1528], pp. 28f [1.21], 34 [1.28])
called “grace” and “nonchalance” (Sprezzatura).
This work – nominally about the perfect “courtier” – ends with a
Platonic analysis of the relation between truth, goodness, and
beauty (Castiglione, 2002 [1528], pp. 246 [4.53], 248f [4.57, 58]).
Yet here Castiglione (2002 [1528], p. 257 [4.69]) clearly turned to
Ficino, and, despite a predilection for triadic thinking,2 posed no new
structural understanding of the relation between truth and the
beautiful-and-good. Nor did his turn to transcendent Platonism, with
its lofty rhetoric and fervid deification of beauty, solve the practical
question of how to account for differences in taste.
The beginnings of a new approach were found in the work of the
seventeenth century writer Baltasar Gracián. As had earlier writers,
Gracián saw the variety of persons to be a challenge to the actor,
and “discretion” as the central trait to be developed. Yet the way this
problem was solved was to involve “taste.” This understanding of
“taste” was a new one. (Previously, in the sixteenth century, “taste”
generally was used to mean a “small bit of something that
familiarizes us with it,” as in “to have just a taste of philosophy,”
Schümmer, 1955, p. 122.) Gracián’s notion of taste was a
nonreasoning faculty that could complement the dictates of reason.
Gracián himself did not determine where taste might fit in to
previous adumbrations of the human faculties, most importantly the
division of intellect and will (or desire), nor did he arrange it in
regard to the excellences or virtues.3 Rather, Gracián (1992 [1647],
p. 89) relied on the earlier transcendentals to suggest values
(“friendship has the three qualities of anything good: unity,
goodness, and truth”), and otherwise picked up and dropped
different systems as they served his purpose.
Why, then, did this interest in taste destabilize previous
understandings of the human constitution? Because attempting both
to accept the diversity of men and manners, and to find some core
principles across this range, required rejecting or at least adapting
the largely deductive and top-down conceptions that dominated
scholastic thought. Here I will leave the fascinating story of the
development of new partitions of the faculties to the side, only
noting where the two developments split off from one another, and
where they reunited.
The second major development (in addition to the new focus on
taste) was a reinvigorated, poetic neo-Platonism that fundamentally
destabilized previous architectures. It is not that Platonism had
disappeared, nor that earlier forms lacked poetic elements. (I have
mentioned Ficino’s two “Platonic wings” above, which indicate some
of the flights of the spirit that Platonism eagerly anticipated.) Yet it
seems that the general scholastic orientation toward framework
building and toward consistency had led to a convergence of Platonic
with more Aristotelian modes of theorizing, and, in particular, an
emphasis on the role of the intellect in determining the True, and
even, in many cases, an emphasis on the will as finding the Good
(often rooted in discussions of Augustine).
To anticipate, the fusion of these two concerns (taste and neo-
Platonism) led to an emphasis on moral sensibility, as has been well
adumbrated by Norton (1995) among others. But in the hands of
some writers, this also led to an expanded notion of taste which
could encompass not only beauty, nor even goodness as moral
beauty, but even truth as an intellectual beauty. The flattening of the
True and the Good into something that would be accessible to an
embodied empirical sensibility then allowed Beauty to be seen as
comparable enough to the others for the triad to appear as a set of
three comparable excellences. As the tide of enthusiasm for such
sensibility receded, it left these three as co-equals, now to be
matched, each to its own faculty.
But I anticipate too much. Let us begin where all subsequent
writers would begin: with the Earl of Shaftesbury.

In Denk. Ak. Wien, vol. vii. 1854, 2 Abth., p. 15. As has been
suggested by Deby and by Daday, it is not impossible that
Hexarthra is identical with Pedalion (and in this case the latter
name, as newer, should be suppressed in favour of the former);
but we must suppose that Schmarda's figure of the front view is a
combination, more or less from memory or notes, of two sketches
or notes taken some time before publication; the one a side view
somewhat obliquely flattened, showing the two eyes as in
Levander's Fig. 3; the other a front view, showing the two pairs of
lateral limbs in their correct positions under pressure.

Trans. Micr. Soc. (n.s.) i. 1853, p. 18 (read Dec. 31, 1851): "We
may say, therefore, that the Rotifera are organized upon the plan
of an Annelid larva.... I do not hesitate to draw the conclusion ...
that the Rotifera are the permanent forms of Echinoderm larvae,
and hold the same relation to the Echinoderms that the Hydriform
Polypi hold to the Medusae, or that Appendicularia holds to the
Ascidians."
