Description

Journalism Versus Art is a book written by Max Eastman and published in 1916. The book is a collection of essays that explores the relationship between journalism and art. Eastman argues that journalism is often at odds with art, as it prioritizes speed, sensationalism, and pragmatism over creativity, depth, and beauty. He believes that journalism can be useful and important, but that it should not be mistaken for art or used as a substitute for it. Throughout the book, Eastman draws on examples from literature, journalism, and his own experiences to illustrate his points. He also discusses the role of the artist in society and the importance of preserving artistic integrity in the face of commercial pressures. Overall, Journalism Versus Art is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the tension between two important cultural forces.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
