A vintage former owner bookplate neatly affixed to the center of the inner front board. "My readers think that I write for the day because my writings are based on the day. So I shall have to wait until my writings are obsolete. Then they may acquire timeliness." The voice of Karl Kraus (1874-1936), Vienna's legendary satirist, polemicist, and pacifist, today speaks with a timeliness and a freshness that the passing of four decades has not dimininished. Kraus assailed the sins of early 20th-century Europe in vitriolic fashion, often finding himself virtually alone in the unpopularity of his stance. In 1919 Kraus indicated the compass of his themes as follows: "Sex and untruth, stupidity, abuses, cadences and cliches, printer's ink, technology, death, war and society, usury, politics, the insolence of office.art and nature, love and dreams." The present Reader includes samples of Kraus's thoughts and feelings on all these subjects, in prose and in verse, culminating in a readable and performable condensation of modern literature's most trenchant antiwar drama, The Last Days of Mankind. The English-speaking public thus has available for the first time a representative selection from the writings of one of the modern era's most influential and original thinkers." - from the inner front jacket flap.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book challenges the common misconception that Puritanism and art are antagonistic. Exploring this relationship throughout history, the author argues that the opposition to art often attributed to Puritans actually arose from specific historical circumstances and was not inherent to Puritanism itself. The author demonstrates that great art has flourished during Puritan eras, and that many Puritan thinkers and artists have made significant contributions to various art forms. The book explores the complex relationship between art, religion, and morality, examining how Puritanism has both supported and challenged artistic expression. Ultimately, the book concludes that Puritanism can be a force for artistic creativity when it focuses on truth and simplicity rather than dogma and outward forms. This nuanced analysis sheds new light on the interplay between Puritanism and art, revealing a more complex and multifaceted relationship than is commonly believed. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
