No work of philosopher and essayist Jos茅 Ortega y Gasset has been more frequently cited, admired, or criticized than his response to modernism, 鈥淭he Dehumanization of Art.鈥� The essay, originally published in Spanish in 1925, grappled with the newness of nonrepresentational art and sought to make it more understandable to the public. Many embraced the essay as a manifesto extolling the virtues of vanguard artists and promoting efforts to abandon the realism and the romanticism of the nineteenth century. Others took it as a denunciation of everything that was radical about the avant-garde. This 91桃色 Classics edition makes this essential work, along with four of Ortega鈥檚 other critical essays, available in English. A new foreword by Anthony J. Cascardi considers how Ortega鈥檚 philosophy remains relevant and significant in the twenty-first century.
