Bartnik, Czesław S. (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 1998)
Personalism assumes the indispensable significance of beauty in the structure and existence of person, also in the Holy Trinity. It understands beauty as “suprareality” of being, as a movement from the alphal state to the omegal state, and co-creation of the higher world. The kalonic act consists in the person’s delight in moving towards “suprareality” Consequently, we have a standpoint which supports various, changing and innumerable aesthetic trends and styles. The kalonic act is not completely reduced to a pure veritativ or/and agathic act. but is a particular concentration of the person on the reality with a view to make the structure, existence, and personalistic creativity perfect.
