| Summary |
"Herbert Read (1893-1968) acquired in his lifetime a very considerable international reputation in all the major areas of his diverse activities: as poet, as literary critic, as educationalist, as anarchist, as philosopher (of art), as art critic, as historian of, and above all, as propagandist for modern art and design." "The papers included have been assembled to ensure a comprehensive and authoritative coverage of Read's life work that is not only lively but is also designed to stimulate debate. In addition to seventeen substantial chapters, David Goodway's introduction provides an overview of Read's life and work, reviews the current state of Read studies and provides a commentary on the contributors' essays, indicating the ways in which they add to our knowledge and/or constitute new interpretations."--Jacket. |
