What are the social, ideological, and aesthetic bases for the links between them? And what role do those links play in creating the humanistic culture that still has power over us today? These are the questions Clark Hulse takes up in this sophisticated interdisciplinary study of Renaissance aesthetics. Proposing an archeology of artistic knowledge, Hulse examines the theoretical language through which the poets, painters, and patrons of the Renaissance conceived of the relationship between the arts. That language is embedded in what he calls a rule of art, a specific set of categories, assumptions, and practices that defined the two art forms and the relationship between them. Hulse charts the rise of both forms to the status of liberal arts requiring special intellectual training for artist and patron alike. In the process, he uncovers the history of the practice of theory in the Renaissance, revealing how artistic discourse lived in the world. Beginning with a discussion of the medieval, theologically grounded hierarchy of the arts in which poetics was considered a subdivision of rhetoric, Hulse finds that the discourse of painters remained a form of craft- or shoptalk. He then examines how Alberti used poetic theory to transform the intellectual and social status of painting, rejecting the language of the shop and raising painting to a position of parity with literature. Through Albertis redefinition of painting, Hulse argues, a new idea of the artwork, a new personality for the artist, and a utopian history of the arts emerged. In the hands of Raphael, Castiglione, and their circle these concepts became deeply enmeshed with disputes over the nature of imitation and with issues of gender and social position. Hulse then shifts to Elizabethan England, demonstrating how Hilliard and Sidney dismantled and reconstructed the discourse of Italian humanism to fit English conditions and purposes. He concludes with Spensers Shepheardes Calender as the final moment of his inquiry into the relationship of artistic theory to practice and into the value of comparative discourse in both Renaissance and modern criticism. Beautifully illustrated and lucidly written, this innovative study will be of interest to students of literature, art history, and Renaissance studies. / CONTENTS LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 1 TOWARD A NEW THEORY OF THE ARTS 2 THE RULE OF THE WORD 3 ALBERTI AND HISTORY 4 THE CIRCLE OF RAPHAEL 5 SIDNEY AND HILLIARD 6 BETWEEN THEORY AND PRACTICE NOTES INDEX.
