The Renaissance Studies In Art And Poetry (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162706771)

""The Renaissance: Studies in Art and Poetry"" by Walter Horatio Pater is a collection of essays that explore the artistic and literary movements of the Renaissance period. The book covers a range of topics, including the works of Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and Botticelli, as well as the poetry of Dante and Shakespeare. Pater's writing is known for its poetic and introspective style, and his essays in this book are no exception. He delves into the emotional and philosophical themes of the Renaissance, examining the ways in which art and poetry reflected the cultural and intellectual changes of the time. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the Renaissance period and its influence on art and literature.""The history of the Renaissance ends in France, and carries us away from Italy to the beautiful cities of the country of the Loire. But it was in France also, in a very important sense, that the Renaissance had begun; and French writers, who are so fond of connecting the creations of Italian genius with a French origin, who tell us how Francis of Assisi took not his name only.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
