Not illustrated. 1914 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER VII MENTAL REACTIONS "The laws of moral nature answer to those of matter as face to face in a glass . . . "The axioms of physics translate the laws of ethics. Thus: Reaction is equal to action." Emerson. IN the formulation of a new theory, child of one's own brain, one is confronted with many difficulties, not the least among them being that of making intelligible the language with which it has spoken at birth; a language quite clear to its parent, rendered so by the absence of any necessity for actual utterance, and above all for the reason that one has lived with it from its birth and become familiar with its every expression. The theory enunciated in the following chapters is the result of five years' work, during which every step was proved, not only in my own experience, but in that of many others. It is offered because it is a conviction-- drawn from ideas, practice, experience and realisation. The reflex action of physical movement upon the brain is not yet generally recognised, although the admitted relation between muscle and mind has been proved by the latest method of training a mentally deficient child through motor culture to intellectual. But I have gone farther, by proving that the principle may be applied in more elaborate form to the normal child, also to the adult, with the certainty of being able to produce a higher stage of mental development. The individual powers are increased to their maximum, and great change in degree may become change in kind. The link between the two organisations is Tension, which, while connecting the chain of physical processes with that of the mental, is allied to both. This merging of the organisations is only possible when the degree of sensitiveness to which the nervous and...

Originally published in the UK in 1961 this was an unconventional book when first published but a powerful interpretation of Greek individualism. The author examines the influence of the Greeks on European philosophy, religion, literature, art and architecture and challenges many commonly held assumptions: ‘Those items in the Greek legacy which are most easily recognizable as such are in fact the least important.’

A vision of reality in which a pre-eminent human type was defined in opposition to non-ideal 'Others' characterized ancient Greece. In democratic Athens the social structure privileged male citizens, and women, resident aliens, and slaves were marginalized. The Persian Wars polarized the opposition of Greeks and Barbarians. This anthology provides the first investigation of the delineation of otherness across a broad spectrum of the imagery of Greek art. An international cast of authors, with methodologies ranging from traditional to avant-garde, examines manifestations of the Other in Late Archaic and Classical Greek representations that particularly interest them. The 17 chapters develop a nuanced picture of the visual criteria that denoted otherness in regard to gender, class, and ethnicity and also reveal the social and political functions of this remarkable Greek imagery. Also available in paperback (ISBN 9789004117129)

Winckelmann's writing has a richness and density that take it well beyond the bounds of the simple rationalist art history and Neo-classical art theory with which it is usually associated. He often seems to speak disturbingly directly to our present awareness of the discomforting ideological and psychic contradictions inherent in supposedly ideal symbolic forms.
