But as argued above (Section 4) mathematical beauty seems primarily located in the content of theorems and proofs, rather than the particular way that content is expressed. Beauty in proofs: Kant on aesthetics in mathematics.	./cache/work_k7zbdnp5lrguxjwffvdgvtlurq.pdf	./txt/work_k7zbdnp5lrguxjwffvdgvtlurq.txt
