While comparative literature is a well-recognized field of study; the notion of comparative arts remains unfamiliar to many. In this fascinating book; Daniel Albright addresses the fundamental question of comparative arts: Are there many different arts; or is there one art which takes different forms? He considers various artistic media; especially literature; music; and painting; to discover which aspects of each medium are unique and which can be ocirc;translatedouml; from one to another. Can a poem turn into a symphony; or a symphony into a painting?aacute;Albright explores how different media interact; as in a drama; when speech; stage decor; and music are co-present; or in a musical composition that employs the collage method of the visual arts. Tracing arguments and questions about the relations among the arts from AristotleAElig;saacute;Poetics to the present day; he illuminates the understudied discipline of comparative arts and urges new attention to its riches.
