Description



Transformations in Late Eighteenth Century Art
Princeton University Press | 1967 | ISBN: N/A | English | 348 pages | PDF | 60.7 MB

In art, as in history, the late eighteenth century created such profound breaches with the past that today, in the late twentieth century, we are still grappling with the problems that then announced the dawn of a new era. In histories of art, this period of unprecedented complexity has generally been divided into the two presumably antagonistic categories of Neoclassicism and Romanticism, a black-and-white polarity that, in more refined histories, also permits a single shade of gray called Romantic Classicism. With closer scrutiny, these semantic straitjackets, like the term Mannerism, have become impossible either to live with or to live without. What are we to call those strange new emotions we feel welling in so much late eighteenth century art, if not Romanticism? What are we to call that abundance of works newly inspired by Greco-Roman art, history, and mythology, if not Neoclassicism?
