Excerpt: ... cross, surely, is too far from me. Ah! what a night! what a terrible night!" (The mist is parted by a gust of wind; and Anthony sees two men covered with long white tunics. The first is of lofty stature, with a gentle face, and a grave mien. His blond hair, parted like that of Christ, falls upon his shoulders. He has cast aside a wand that he had been holding in his hand; his companion takes it up, making a reverence after the fashion of the Orientals. The latter is small of stature, thick set, flatnosed; his neck and shoulders expresses good natured simplicity. Both are barefooted, bareheaded, and dusty, like persons who have made a long journey.) Anthony (starting up: --) "What do ye seek? Speak!... Begone from here!" Damis (who is a little man). "Nay! nay! be not angered, good hermit. As for that I seek, I know not myself what it is! Here is the Master!" (He sits down. The other stranger remains standing. Silence.) Anthony (asks). "Then ye come?..." Damis. "Oh! from afar off--very far off!" Anthony. "And ye go?..." Damis (pointing to the other) "Whithersoever he shall desire!" Anthony. "But who may he be?" Damis. ' Look well upon him!' Anthony (aside). "He looks like a saint! If I could only dare..." (The mist is all gone. The night is very clear. The moon shines.) Damis. ' Of what art thou dreaming, that thou dost not speak?" Anthony. "I was thinking... Oh I nothing!" Damis (approaches Apollonius, and walks all round him several times, bending himself as he walks, never raising his head: --) "Master, here is a Galilean hermit who desires to know the beginnings of wisdom." Apollonius. 'Let him approach!' (Anthony hesitates.) Damis. ' Approach!' Apollonius (in a voice of thunder: --) "Approach! Thou wouldst know who I am, what I have...
Download or read book Born Under Saturn written by Rudolf Wittkower and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2006-11-28 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rare art history classic that The New York Times calls a “delightful, scholarly and gossipy romp through the character and conduct of artists from antiquity to the French Revolution.” Born Under Saturn is a classic work of scholarship written with a light and winning touch. Margot and Rudolf Wittkower explore the history of the familiar idea that artistic inspiration is a form of madness, a madness directly expressed in artists’ unhappy and eccentric lives. This idea of the alienated artist, the Wittkowers demonstrate, comes into its own in the Renaissance, as part of the new bid by visual artists to distinguish themselves from craftsmen, with whom they were then lumped together. Where the skilled artisan had worked under the sign of light-fingered Mercury, the ambitious artist identified himself with the mysterious and brooding Saturn. Alienation, in effect, was a rung by which artists sought to climb the social ladder. As to the reputed madness of artists—well, some have been as mad as hatters, some as tough-minded as the shrewdest businessmen, and many others wildly and willfully eccentric but hardly crazy. What is certain is that no book presents such a splendid compendium of information about artists’ lives, from the early Renaissance to the beginning of the Romantic era, as Born Under Saturn. The Wittkowers have read everything and have countless anecdotes to relate: about artists famous and infamous; about suicide, celibacy, wantonness, weird hobbies, and whatnot. These make Born Under Saturn a comprehensive, quirky, and endlessly diverting resource for students of history and lovers of the arts. “This book is fascinating to read because of the abundant quotations which bring to life so many remarkable individuals.”–The New York Review of Books
