Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Renaissance, and Other Essays on Art Subjects But this admiration of a master in the theory and criticism Of art has not prevented me from enjoying artistic excellence wherever it may be found, and in periods in which Mr. Ruskin sometimes declines to re cognize it, in Greek as well as Gothic, in Dutch, French and Spanish schools Of painting as well as Italian, and especially to View Greek art as the head source, giving its law to all that comes after. I have, in a word, tried to cultivate a catholic spirit, believing that art dwells in the human soul, and shows itself in an infinite variety Of form, like the types and products Of nature but whatever opinions Mr. Ruskin himself may have arrived at, from some Of which we are forced respectfully to dissent, he has been our best guide to the facts and ideas Of nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Renaissance, and Other Essays on Art Subjects With the exception of the last five essays, those contained in this volume have already appeared in print; the essay upon Art in Education, or a portion of it, was published in the 'Forum,' that upon Principles of Art in the 'Church Review,' and others in the ' New Englander.' The first article, upon The Early Reniaissance, was originally delivered as an introductory address before the Yale School of Fine Arts; and the occasional nature of all these essays, not being academic class-lectures or having a strictly technical, and therefore perhaps more popular character, have led me to put them in book form. There has been a marked awakening of interest in things pertaining to art and its literature, not only among the more highly cultivated class but among professional and practical men; and the hope of meeting this demand in some slight way, has also influenced me.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Renaissance: Two Lectures Delivered at the Yale Art School, January 14 and 21 Rimini, which Dante was wont to go when he walked musing on his divine theme; and lifted by the place and its memories, my own thought was for a time freed from earthly objects and raised to something higher; and so 1 esteem it a great privi lege to enter with you, my friends, even a little way into that haunted region of the imagination, that world of art and beauty where the mind leaves its earthly cares behind and grows young again as in the golden prime; for the imagination ever ennobles if permitted to seek lofty and pure objects, recalling images of the mind's best moments, its truest life, its deepest thoughts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of the Italian Renaissance: A Handbook for Students and Travellers In this interesting treatise a German writer has made an attempt, and a curiously successful one, to deal with the great period of the High Renaissance in Italy from a somewhat novel point of view - that, in fact, of the craftsman himself, rather than that of the interpreter. Passing over the anecdotic and historical aspects of schools and periods, he has made a synthetic study of that completed form of art which has been described - mistakenly, he contends - as a return to classic ideals brought about by the discovery of antique models. He has confined himself for purposes of demonstration to the works of the great masters of Central Italy. The book is of modest dimensions, and its author does not claim to have dealt exhaustively with his vast theme, but rather to be one of the pioneers in a field that has been strangely neglected by art-historians and the newest school of art-critics - the field of pure aesthetics. Insisting strongly on the necessity of systematic work on this fruitful ground, Herr Wolfflin does not wander haphazard among the artistic phenomena of the period. The whole question of colour, for instance, has been left for future consideration. He deals here with problems of form alone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of the Renaissance Lorenzo Valla in proclaiming the perfections of the Latin language: 'the glory of Latinity was allowed to decay in rust and mould. And many, indeed, and varied are the opinions of wise men on how'this happened. I neither accept nor reject any of these, daring only to declare soberly that those arts which are most closely related to the liberal arts, the arts of painting, sculpture, modelling, and archi tecture, had degenerated for so long and so greatly and had almost: died with letters themselves, and that in this age they have been) aroused and come to life again, so greatly increased is the number of good artists and men of letters who now ourish. Thus, the Renaissance was thought of both as a revival of good Latin literature and of the figurative arts. One reason for, the apparently overwhelm ing importance which the men of the age attached to good Latinity was, of course, the fact that it was the common tongue of all educated men - a tiny proportion of the population in any country; another, less obvious, reason was the fact that the new European states were coming into existence; some, like France and England, with central ized monarchies, and others, like most of the Italian states, indepen dent merchant communities. These states needed a professional administrative class, well grounded in Roman Law, which was still a living thing. They were inevitably exponents of the new, lay, _ learning, which, like the professional studies of the clergy, was based on Latin.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Renaissance and Modern Art Which keeps closest in touch with the point of view which recognizes Renaissance Italy as the main source of modern culture, while Ranke's histories, especially his History of the Popes and his History of England, are the best general reference for the sixteenth and seventeenth cen turies at large. Fiske's Discovery of America, and Campbell's Puritan in Holland, England, and America, are the books best calculated to bring our own American history into line with that of continental Europe. I have mentioned these various books from the conviction that the only true philosophy of modern history is that which moves from the Renaissance as its elementary basis, that the study Of Renaissance art is the best approach to Renaissance history, and that the best Supplementary reading is that of the historians whose point of view is the largest and most comprehensive.
