DESCRIPTION:
"The transition from a Classic to a Romantic aesthetic" according to Shalom Freedman. Bate is an outstanding critic and wonderfully clear writer. In this work he traces the great transition from Classic to Romantic Aesthetic. He outlines in his first chapter the principles of a Classical Art which aimed at the universally human. It operated on the basis that through Reason there could be attained a true grasp of Nature and the world. The Classical view however powerful and appealing gradually gave way to the more idiosyncratic, individual, Nature connected Romantic view.Bate brings to the work a rich knowledge of the Art, Literature and Music of the time. An outstanding critical work.
