2022ref. BIBHB0058237152022. Hardcover. New. About the book:- The book devided into five parts namely Europe Africa Asia Australia America. For the best copies or photographs never give quite the vitality or flavor of the original art and all criticism based on such secondary material must be more hesitating than criticism based on original examples. The classification of the various arts in this book is very different from the one in comparative Art and a little different from the one in Art and Man. This is the result of evolution. As we have learned more the subject has changed and expanded. But the matter is so involved that at best any classification must be more or less a makeshift. Two of the terms made use of in this book need explanation. one is the term �art.�Art� of course includes literature and music. But these are not referred to here. �Art�is employed in this work in a strictly limited sense to cover the arts of space: sculpture architecture drawing painting etching etc. The other term is �Amerind.�This was invented by some one Major Powell.
