{"product_id":"9781032465388","title":"Art and Monist Philosophy in Nineteenth Century France From Auteuil to Giverny by Nina Athanassoglou-Kallmyer","description":"This is a study of the relation between the fine arts and philosophy in France, from the aftermath of the 1789 revolution to the end of the nineteenth century, when a philosophy of being called \"monism\" - the concept of a unity of matter and spirit - emerged and became increasingly popular among intellectuals, artists and scientists.    Nina Athanassoglou-Kallmyer traces the evolution and impact of this monist thought and its various permutations as a transformative force on certain aspects of French art and culture - from Romanticism to Impressionism - and as a theoretical backdrop that paved the way to as yet unexplored aspects of a modernist aesthetic. Chapters concentrate on three major artists, Th?odore G?ricault (1791-1824), Eug?ne Delacroix (1798-1863) and Claude Monet (1840-1926), and their particular approach to and interpretation of this unitarian concept.    The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, philosophy and cultural history.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56295976894837,"sku":"9781032465388","price":150.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781032465388.jpg?v=1762769763","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781032465388","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
