About this title

Synopsis

The Creative Impulse introduces the arts of the Western tradition with a chronological organization. It covers a wide variety of subjects including painting, sculpture, architecture, theatre, music, dance, literature, and film, all in their historical context. Up-to-date material on modern artistic movements and achievements broadens the scope of the coverage.

From the Publisher

Sporre presents an overview of the visual arts, architecture, literature, music, theatre, dance, and film of the Western tradition in the context of the philosophy, religion, aesthetic theory, economics, science, and politics that surrounded them. The text serves as an historical introduction to the humanities from which the reader will gain a familiarity with major styles, an understanding of the ideological, chronological, and technical implications of those styles, and a feeling for the historical development of individual arts disciplines.
