Art and Scholasticism - Paperback
by Jacques Maritain (Author)
Art and Scholasticism is Jacques Maritain's seminal reflection on the nature and vocation of art, informed by the precision of Thomistic philosophy and a profound reverence for the spiritual calling of the artist. First published in 1920 and rooted in the medieval tradition, this philosophical treatise argues that true art must be both objective and transcendent-crafted not merely for expression or utility, but as a disciplined participation in the pursuit of beauty and truth. Maritain reclaims the classical view of the artist as a maker bound by the virtues of intellect and grace, offering a compelling synthesis of metaphysical realism and aesthetic insight. With its fusion of metaphysics, theology, and artistic theory, Art and Scholasticism remains a foundational work for anyone seeking to understand the ethical and ontological dimensions of artistic creation.
