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.
