Excerpt from Poetry as a Representative Art: An Essay in Comparative Aesthetics This work is intended to be complete in itself, developing from beginning to end the whole subject of which it treats. But this subject is a part of a larger one, connected with which are many underlying principles and practical inferences not mentioned here, although some of them, apparently, are not outside even of the limited range of discussion prescribed for this book by its title. To obviate the criticism which the omission of any reference to these may naturally occasion, it seems well to state that Poetry as a Representative Art is only one of a series of essays, most of which have been thought out, many written, and the whole, when completed, intended to present topics arranged somewhat as follows: The Distinction between Nature and Art - Between Useful and AEsthetic Art - The different Theories held concerning the Latter, and their effects upon its Products - The true Theory, its Philosophical Basis, and the Classification of the Arts as determined by it. The fact of Representation, and its Bearings upon the Methods of the different Arts - Poetry as a representative Art (the present work) - Representation in Music - Painting - Sculpture - and architecture.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1899 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXVIII. THE USEFUL ENDS OF POETIC REPRESENTATION. These are all developed from Possibilities and Methods of Expression underlying equally the Formation of Poetic and of all Language--Poetry forced to recognize that Nature symbolizes Processes of Thought--Influence of this Recognition upon Conceptions of Truth, Human and Divine, Scientific and Theologic--And its Effects upon Feeling and Action--Conclusion. [ DERHAPS this discussion of poetry as a representaV tive art can be brought to a close in no better way than by dwelling for a moment upon the thought suggested by the stanza at the end of the last chapter. Poetry is not, in a technical sense, a useful art, yet its forms have their uses, and many uses--as many, in fact, as have the forms of nature itself, which poetry, when it fulfils its mission, ]employs in its representations. To give a complete list of these uses here would be irrelevant. It is sufficient to suggest, that in the last analysis all of them are developed from possibilities and methods of expression, underlying the formation of all language but especially of poetic language.) Language involves, as we have found, a representation of mental facts and processes through the use of analogous external facts and processes, which alone are apprehensible to others, and which alone, therefore, can make others apprehend our thoughts. But facts and processes fitted to furnish such representations may be perceived on every side of us in the objects and operations of what we term nature. It is the poet, however, who is most conscious of these analogies, for he, instead of accepting those noticed by others and embodied in conventional words, is constantly seeking for new ones and using these. To the poet, and the reader of..
