Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Two Phases of Criticism Historical and Aesthetic: Lectures Delivered on the Larwill Foundation of Kenyon College May Seventh and Eighth, 1913 What is the act of criticism? It has lately been succinctly described as a repetition of the creative act of genius originating a work of art; to criticise is to re-create. The critic is genius at one remove; he is not unlike an actor on the stage, and incarnates in his mind, as the actor embodies in his person, another´s work; only thus does he understand art, realize it, know it; and having arrived at this, his task is done. This is the last word of modern theory. It is obvious that it simplifies the function of criticism, and relieves it apparently of much of its old service. It relieves it, I for example, of judgment; the critic understands, he does not judge. It relieves it of interpretation; the critic presents, he does not interpret. Strictly speaking, it seems a private affair that he is engaged in, an appreciation within his own consciousness; for the public to benefit by this method, every one must become his own critic, since to create or re-create is a deeply personal act.
