Malraux Andre; Stuart Gilbert translator
The Metamorphosis of the Gods
<p>Doubleday & Company NY 1960. 1st edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Minister of Information and later the first Minister of Cultural Affairs. Appointed by President Charles de Gaulle. "The Metamorphosis of the Gods" is a trilogy discussing the artistic advancement and theory from the Renaissance to Modern times. "Malraux's works on the theory of art contain a revolutionary approach to art that challenges the Enlightenment tradition that treats art simply as a source of 'aesthetic pleasure'. The radical implications of his thinking are often missed. A particularly important aspect of Malraux's thinking about art is his explanation of the capacity of art to transcend time. In contrast to the traditional notion that art endures because it is timeless 'eternal' Malraux argues that art lives on through metamorphosis - a process of resuscitation where the work had fallen into obscurity and transformation in meaning." wikipedia - Derek Allen This book is Volume 1 of the trilogy published in English; Volumes 2 and 3 were not published in English until 1974 and 1976. Very minor chipping on dust jacket. There is a protective mylar cover. The slipcase is in very good condition with minor chipping at the top. 1ST US EDITION.</p> Doubleday & Company, NY hardcover

The Metamorphosis of the Gods
Garden City: Doubleday & Company. As New in Very Good dust jacket. 1960. First US Edition. 1. Hard Cover. Publisher's full maroon cloth with embossed gilt lettering on cover and spine. Profusely illustrated with B&W photographs. In slipcase. Through the civilizations of Greece and Byzantium and Europe Malraux traces successive changes not only in the meaning of art but in its uses. One loses a sense of one period growing out of another and substitutes instead an awareness of forces that produced change beyond the definable worldly factors. Malraux reaches back into pre- history to ancient empires Minean and Mycenacean and Egyptian and Hittite; and forward to the classic eres as the Sophists undermined the prestige of the gods and the tyranny of reality lept Rome from true art. With the Byzantium overlordship came the linking and kinship between Christian and Oriental forms. A religious ferment was at work. Mosaics- not painting- took the place of the antique sculptures. Manuscript illumination- Coptic miniatures- the art of the illuminated book all were directed to a limited few the book loving elite. But with the religious revival of the 11th century and the Crusades architecture and sculpture found new birth. The Romanesque period established a new relationship between man and God and man and the world in which he lived:- the religion of love as the sacred found expression in human terms. Two centuries- and another change. With the 14th century came the emergence of purely secular figures- and sculpture in its turn was challenged by painting -- as it had supplanted mosaics. The feudal hierarchy was yielding to an urban way of life. This book expands- it opens wider still- the scope of the "Museum without Walls" which is Malraux' great gift to an art-hungry world. This is a superb translation by Stuart Gilbert of a work destined to take a permanent place. The volume is in perfect pristine condition unmarked tight square and clean. The unclipped dust jacket has some slight creases at the upper edges of the flaps lightly rubbing to spine ends and tips. In a good slipcase with a short split on the top edge light rubbing and sunfading to covers edges. AS NEW/ VERY GOOD. . B&W Photographs. 8vo 8" - 9" tall. 400 pp . Doubleday & Company hardcover

Translated by Stuart Gilbert. "For thousands of years the raison d'etre of art was to 'picture the gods. ' And yet a time arrived in Greece when the makers of gods became makers of statues just as a time arrived hundreds of years later in Italy when Botticelli would paint Venus because she did not exist. In each instance man had intruded his presence into the company of the gods and saints; the idol had become the work of art. In this great new work M. Malraux has concentrated on this aspect of our ceaseless struggle to improse our own image on the absolute tracing it through the civilizations of Greece and Europe to that moment when the Renaissance brought into beng a world which Christian art had never known before - a world in which the artist dared to place his own vision beside the reality of God.

Now Claude's obsession mastered him again and he gazed fixedly at the man's shadowed face straining to get at least some inkling of its expression against the glow of a ship's lamp behind it. His features showed as vague as the dim radiance of the coastal lights on the Somali foreshore lost in a blinding sheen of moonlight mirrored in the salterns."
