Description
The classic work on the sublime interplay between the arts and poetics
This book explores the rich and complex relationship between art and poetry, shedding invaluable light on what makes each unique yet wholly interdependent. Jacques Maritain insists on the part played by the intellect as well as the imagination, showing how poetry has its source in the preconceptual activity of the rational mind. But intellect is not merely logical and conceptual reason. Maritain reveals how it carries on an exceedingly more profound and obscure life, one that is revealed to us as we seek to penetrate the hidden recesses of poetic and artistic activity. Beautifully illustrated, this illuminating book is the product of a lifelong reflection on the meaning of artistic expression in all its varied forms.
