Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue of the German Arts and Crafts at the Universal Exposition: St. Louis, 1904 There is an inspiring contrast between the art of the eighteenth century in its dignified grandeur and full maturity and the young art of the twentieth century working along the same lines of artistic effort to accomplish what the artist of the last centuries so signally compassed. In their external form they may differ but at heart they are one in artistic feeling and like all truly artistic creations their influence will never wane.

Book German Culture in Nineteenth century America

Download or read book German Culture in Nineteenth century America written by Lynne Tatlock and published by Camden House. This book was released on 2005 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume examines the circulation and adaptation of German culture in the United States during the so-called long nineteenth century - the century of mass German migration to the new world, of industrialization and new technologies, American westward expansion and Civil War, German struggle toward national unity and civil rights, and increasing literacy on both sides of the Atlantic. Building on recent trends in the humanities and especially on scholarship done under the rubric of cultural transfer, German Culture in Nineteenth-Century America places its emphasis on the processes by which Americans took up, responded to, and transformed German cultural material for their own purposes. Informed by a conception of culture as multivalent, permeable, and protean, the book focuses on the mechanisms, agents, and means of mediation between cultural spaces."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Twenty first century Perspectives on Nineteenth century Art

Download or read book Twenty first century Perspectives on Nineteenth century Art written by Petra ten-Doesschate Chu and published by Associated University Presse. This book was released on 2008 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book presents an interdisciplinary and inclusive view of nineteenth-century art, observed from the vantage point of the new twenty-first century. The areas of expertise represented by the thirty essays herein span the full range of nineteenth-century studies, and include discussions of such artistic styles as realism, impressionism, romanticism, and art nouveau, as well as early twentieth-century movements that owe their formative influence to the nineteenth century. Topics span the historical gamut from revivalism to the roots of modernism, considering along the way such themes as the depiction of women, Orientalism, art criticism, evolutionary theory, political propaganda, history painting, landscape, and national identity. Aspects of art display, public monuments, and international exhibitions shed light on the roles of government and individuals in the dissemination of artistic styles and subject matter. Unique in this collection is an emphasis on the marketing of art, both in America and abroad, which considers the important financial and commercial issues that continue to influence viewers' beliefs and perceptions. Most important, this book demonstrates that the rich field of nineteenth-century studies continues to inspire discovery and creativity."--Publisher description.
