The Realization of the Beautiful: On Henry van de Velde's Aesthetic Theory

Pages 1-13 | Published online: 06 Jul 2012
 

Abstract

The unhistorical (the power to forget) and the super-historical (art and religion) are the natural antidotes against the overpowering of life by history; they are the cures for the historical disease. We who are sick of the disease may suffer a little from the antidote. But this is no proof that the treatment we have chosen is wrong.

Friedrich Nietzsche
