About This Item
Freedom Press, 2008. First Edition. Softcover. Fine Condition. A few slight cover markings, contents are clean bright and unmarked. Almost as new. From poverty and a Yorkshire orphanage, Herbert Read went on to become the most significant cultural critic to come out of England in the twentieth century. In this book sixteen of the world's leading writers on modernist cultural history look at Read's work again, focusing on his anarchist political beliefs, his work on art and literature, and his own creative writings. They place him in the context of twentieth century cultural life, and offer startling explanations for his neglect by later writers on modernism.The book is very well illustrated in full colour, with images of works by many of the artists Read championed. 238 pages. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Art & Design; ISBN/EAN: 9781904491088. Inventory No: dscf8816. . 9781904491088
