Vergilbt, sonst guter Zustand / Yellowed, otherwise in good condition. - The mask in its innumerable forms and functions is the earliest man-created phenomenon and his most accomplished realization of our twofold existence. It gives man the imaginary power to manipulate his own destiny, to represent or… hide various facets of his ego, to protect, beautify, frighten or pacify, universalize or eternalize. It is his other face, artificial and artistic. Walter Sorells new book is a perceptive and wide- ranging investigation of the magic and mystery of the mask and in particular of the universal significance of the concept of the mask as it is and has been expressed in the arts. It offers a full analysis of art forms from all over the world and throughout history which have depended specifically on the mask, from the comtnedia dellarte to the Japanese Noh play, the Kathakali dances of India to the carnival grotesqueries which persist even today in many parts of the globe. But Mr. Sorell is also concerned to demonstrate the degree to which the obsession with masks and disguise has permeated all the arts from painting to puppetry and literature to mime. He illustrates his theme by singling out a startling diversity of artists for discussion, ranging in literature from the Old Testament to Jean Genet, in painting from Bosch to Picasso, in dance from primitive devil-dancers to Alwin Nikolais and in puppetry from the wayang kulit of Java to Peter Schumanns Bread and Puppet Theater in New York. He also includes a chapter on the death mask and throughout the book discusses mans apparently essential need for disguise in a world where almost everyone wears a mask.
