{"product_id":"marc-chagall-fred-dallmayr-9780367506773","title":"Marc Chagall: The Artist as Peacemaker","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book follows Chagall's life through his art and his understanding of the role of the artist as a political being. It takes the reader through the different milieus of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries - including the World Wars and the Holocaust - to present a unique understanding of Chagall's artistic vision of peace in an age of extremes. At a time when all identities are being subsumed into a \"national\" identity, this book makes the case for a larger understanding of art as a way of transcending materiality. The volume explores how Platonic notions of truth, goodness, and beauty are linked and mutually illuminating in Chagall's work. A \"spiritual-humanist\" interpretation of his life and work renders Chagall's opus more transparent and accessible to the general reader.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt will be essential reading for students of art and art history, political philosophy, political science, and peace studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fred Dallmayr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367506777\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367506773\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge Chapman \u0026amp; Hall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/05\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 82\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.22lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.00w x 0.20d","brand":"Fred Dallmayr","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44138704339199,"sku":"9780367506773","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9f218039-8520-48a5-a3e3-504eaa1ab085.jpg?v=1687901072","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/marc-chagall-fred-dallmayr-9780367506773","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
