N2 - The history of the changing meaning of one of the most important aesthetic terms (beauty) and its connection with the appreciation of nature. The idea of beauty was traditionally (in antiquity as well as in medieval and Renaissance aesthetics) connected with regularity, proportion and usefulness, utility, etc. In this text, we would like to show that this connection had already begun to change during the 18th century and that these changes in the aesthetic field (E. Burke, W. Gilpin, I. Kant) were based on an appreciation of nature. These thinkers aesthetic texts were also very influential on the attitude held towards landscape or natural scenery by tourists or wanderers and artists.
