Endpapers of book by Daniel Buren. "Since public museums came into being in the late 18th century, artists have looked upon them with a mixture of reverence, complicity, suspicion, and disdain. In The Museum as Muse, artists of many persuasions speak their minds about museums, their functions and spaces, their practices and politics, and their relationship to the art they contain. More than 60 artists are represented by a wide range of works: photographs of museum patrons by Henri Cartier-Bresson and Elliot Erwitt; 'personal museums' and 'cabinets of curiosities' by Charles Wilson Peale, Marcel Duchamp, and Claes Oldenburg; fantasies of the destruction or transformation of museums by Hubert Robert, Ed Ruscha, and Christo and more, including works created especially for this project by contemporary artists, and an anthology of statements and writings by artists about museums. This volume was published to accompany an exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York." -- publisher's statement. Very Good.

Pains have been taken to prevent the concept of "the Renaissance" from imposing a false unity on this complicated period. The great medieval literature of Scotland and the work of Sidney, Spenser, and Hooker naturally provide the high lights, but More and Tyndale are revalued and many inferior but more typical authors are shown to be of importance for the literary historian. The pattern which emerges is, in some ways, unexpected.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***C. S. Lewis includes in his scholarly study authors such as Alexander Barclay, Gavin or Gawin Douglas, Michael Drayton, John Fisher, John Knox, Thomas John Lyly, Thomas Nashe, William Roper, the sonnets of William Shakespeare, Sir Thomas Moore, Alexander Scott; Sir Philip Sydney etc. etc. ***First impression of the true first edition of this important literary work, complete in its original dustwrapper, in very nice collectable condition. A very detailed, scholarly book and a classic title, of interest to scholars of English Literature in the sixteenth century, and collectors of C. S. Lewis first edition titles.
