Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The New Tendency, in Art: Post Impressionism, Cubism, Futurism Art´s complaisancy has been shocked. The immunity which has been continued to her through thirty odd centuries is at length recalled. She finds herself now brought face to face with a challenge which she must either ignore or accept. The world has lived through the like experience in its other great activities. In medicine Hahnemann inaugurated no less of a revolution, when, instead of opposing the principle in disease, he treated it in kind, nor was Luther´s revolt any less appalling when he substituted faith in place of works. Music has arrived with less of a shock at Debussy because of Wagner, but the step from Mendelssohn to him is no greater than from Raphael to Gauguin. In jurisprudence the wig and gown has received its fillip in the Recall of Judicial Decisions. In time each of these, comfortably established by Tradition, has been asked to rouse itself, get up, and turn around. It has never hurt any of these to be viewed from the other side. In the New Movement in art we can detect the same protesting spirit in which Luther nailed his theses upon the Church door of Wittenberg when he tried to raise formalism to the higher power of faith. Here likewise is a protest that demands the eye of faith, with its ability to see the spirit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
