Quotes
- “The seventeenth-century academic separation between fine and useful arts first fell out of fashion nearly a century ago.”
- “The notion of style has long been the art historian's principal mode of classifying works of art. By style he selects and shapes the history of art.”
- “Purpose has no place in biology, but history has no meaning without it.”
- “However useful it is for pedagogical purposes, the biological metaphor of style as a sequence of life-stages was historically misleading, for it bestowed upon the flux of events the shapes and behavior of organisms.”
- “We always may be sure that every man-made thing arises from a problem as a purposeful solution.”
- “The historian's special contribution is the discovery of the manifold shapes of time. The aim of the historian, regardless of his specialty in erudition, is to portray time. He is committed to the detection and description of the shape of time.”
