Crossing the Disciplines-A Study of the Rise of Academic Cultures - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The fervent zeal for canonisation seems to be peaking during the age of Romanticism which inspired the coming together of sciences and arts, inaugurating the epochal moments of the final transition to a collective understanding of the vaster forces that underlie the artistic perceptions, ethos and scientific rationale that underlie the artist's preoccupied self. In the momentous and radical transformations that Institutions, Academies and Universities of the day witnessed, the traditional academic stratifications of disciplines were becoming increasingly incapable of accommodating the vastly expanding territories of knowledge. In the maddening world of awareness unlimited, the Institutions and Academies let their doors remain opened for the emerging themes of scientific knowledge and artistic perceptions, and they found many avenues for holding forth endless discourses. The book is making a critical study of the signature moments of this transition from Romanticism to Modernism.
