Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. First Edition. Hardcover. First Edirion. This Delicious Madness. Slightly sunned top edge of front cloth. Couple of tears to edge of D/J.Price clipped to D/J. The author, an alert and distinguished eighty-two, has written a delightful analysis of love through the ages as seen by writers, poets ad artists from the time of King Arthur to the present day. His thesis is that the delicacy of expression and ourity of thought exhibited in the arts of earlier centuries have been lost by contemporary exponents of those arts. The author concludes with a vehement chapter decrying midern writers and what he feekls is their obsession with the sordid and the base. The book is delightfully illustrated with etchings, engravings and paintings, among them Rudolf von Deutsch's Abduction of Helen of Troy by Paris, Robert Burns and Mary under the Trysting Tree from the Johnston painting, and Sir Joshua Reynolds' portrait of Emma, Lady Hamilton as a Bacchante.
