Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from John G. Neihardt: Man and Poet This study was undertaken with the purpose of finding out how a man achieved distinction in one form of art. To learn this, it was necessary to discover the influences, social, economic and literary, that have touched the life of the subject, and his reactions thereto. Thus we are able to discern his philosophy and the means by which his personality developed and his instinct for workmanship took its direction, and to place some tentative estimate on his work. Back of all large human achievement lies a philosophy of life, a feeling, however chaotic, for life-values. The early nineteenth century was dominated by the philosophical conceptions of Rousseau. Nature was deified and an eternal harmony alleged between mans instincts and his happiness. All the structure of society was, therefore, so much limitation upon human well being. Freedom was the watchword and freedom was, as Mill said, removal of obstacles. The fiscal policy of England was dominated by this strange obsession growing out of a natural rebellion against the repressive policies that had prevailed.
