Publisher's Synopsis
In 1910, the German satirist, writer and critic Alexander Moszkowski (1851-1934) wrote an extended essay on how he thought the arts would develop over a long time frame, which would later be reprinted also as part of "Enthronte Gottheiten" (Dethroned Gods). This is a completely new edition of the 1910 book with an introduction by Hansjoerg Walther. It is richly annotated with information on persons, background, as well as explanations for obsolete words and expressions. For further background, several texts by Alexander Moszkowski are supplied in an appendix. All material is in German.
