LOGOS/HAN NAH ART END

        

Re. correspondence received :

     The actual subject matter of the book is the position of the artist in the world and in history :
of the man who does not "do" like human beings but who "creates" like God - though in appearance only. The artist is forever excluded from reality, and banished into the "empty province of beauty". His playing at eternity - and this bewitching game that we call beauty - turns into the "laughter that destroys reality," the laughter that springs from the terrible intuition that the Creation itself, and not merely man's playing at creating, can be destroyed.

- Hannah Arendt, p.124  Reflections on Literature and Culture
