Book Outlines of the History of Art  Vol  2 of 2  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Outlines of the History of Art Vol 2 of 2 Classic Reprint written by Wilhelm Lubke and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 838 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of the History of Art, Vol. 2 of 2 Thence it came about that the soul, desiring to take its living, personal part in the objects to be represented, began to contemplate religious subjects no longer for their piety alone, but as much on account of the purely artistic motives which they offered to the eye as for the sake of the deeply human truth and beauty which the heart recognized in them. Works of art were now produced to satisfy a strong instinct of the soul, a personal love for the beauitful and the sublime, and no longer simply to meet the needs of a church. N o wonder, then, if these creations laid claim to acceptance for their own sake, proclaiming as they did what is eternal in every human breast, not in compliance with a command of the Church, but urged by that inner voice, and so standing as equal revelations of the divine. On the other hand, however, Art held fast to the traditional subject matter and so retained an important advantage. She continued to be understood by the people at large, and was not limited, as in later times, to that narrow circle of culture on the heights of society, in whose refined and icy atmosphere her freedom is in danger of being stifled. And, besides, she was relieved of the strain of continually seeking after some new subject, and could devote her unbroken fresh ness to the theme already presented, and spend her whole force upon its artistic formation. In a word, she remained true to a circle of ideal conceptions - an inestimable advantage at a time when such powerful attractions toward the material, and toward cosmic realities, existed. Hence the realism of this epoch went to extremes only in exceptional cases; rather, as in the golden age of Grecian art, it brought about a compromise, in which an harmonious union of the ideal subject with a form true to nature was effected.

This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of the History of Art, Vol. 1 of 2 Dr. Lubke's grundriss der kunstgeschichte was first pub lished in 1860. The eleventh edition was published in 1 891, and was really a revised edition; but it was still the old book, containing many of the characteristics of the original issue. Since 1891 much has been added to the scholar's knowledge of archaology and to the critic's perception of artistic truth; but, since 1 860, the whole point of View has changed. The history of art which is possible to-day was unthinkable in 1860; many assumptions have been proved untrue; many known facts have wholly different explana tions now, from those once thought sufficient. The amount of added fact is incredibly great and important. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of the Philosophy of Universal History, Vol. 2 of 2: Applied to Language and Religion The Aphorisms on the philosophy of the history of mankind, and on the history of religion in particular, which formed part of the first edition of "Hippolytus and his Age," were destined to present sonic leading philosophical thoughts on the religious history of mankind: fragments of a system which lies at the bottom of my treatment of that subject. They contained the elements of three philosophical inquiries. First, a sketch of the progress and results of that sublime portion of philosophy which is generally called the philosophy of the universal history of the human race. Secondly, the outlines of such a philosophy applied to the principle of development in religion, and particularly in Christianity. Thirdly, a faint delineation of the connexion between religion and language, as to their common origin and their cognate principles of development.
