Rather than treat art as an expression of individual genius, market forces, or aesthetic principles, Michael Jackson focuses on how art effects transformations in our lives. Art opens up transitional, ritual, or utopian spaces that enable us to reconcile inward imperatives and outward constraints, thereby making our lives more manageable and meaningful. Art allows us to strike a balance between being actors and being acted upon. Drawing on his ethnographic fieldwork in Aboriginal Australia and West Africa, as well as insights from psychoanalysis, religious studies, literature, and the philosophy of art, Jackson deploys an extraordinary range of references-from Bruegel to Beuys, Paleolithic art to performance art, Michelangelo to Munch-to explore the symbolic labor whereby human beings make themselves, both individually and socially, out of the environmental, biographical, and physical materials that affect them: a process that connects art with gestation, storytelling, and dreaming and illuminates the elementary forms of religious life.Art and religionElectronic books.Art and religion.201/.67Jackson Michael1940-960686MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910466456603321The work of art2447128UNINA01296nam 2200337Ia 450 99638533600331620200824132030.0(CKB)4940000000074800(EEBO)2248525214(OCoLC)ocm12061508e(OCoLC)12061508(EXLCZ)99494000000007480019850521d1655 uy |engurbn||||a|bb|Charls Stuart and Oliver Cromvvel united, or, Glad tidings of peace to all Christendom, to the Jews and heathen, conversion, to the Church of Rome, certain downfall, the Irish not to be transplanted[electronic resource] /extraordinarily declared by God almighty to the publisher, Walter Gostelow[London] Printed for the author1655[20], 312 pPlace of publication from Wing.Reproduction of original in Huntington Library.eebo-0113Great BritainHistoryCommonwealth and Protectorate, 1649-1660Gostelo Walter1002731EAAEAAm/cWaOLNBOOK996385336003316Charls Stuart and Oliver Cromvvel united, or, Glad tidings of peace to all Christendom2362058UNISA
