- Summary:
- "Heinrich Wölfflin's Principles of Art History was published in Munich in 1915 and was subsequently translated from German into twenty-two languages, becoming one of art history's most read and discussed works and a world classic in the humanities. This collection of essays examines the influence and criticism of Wölfflin's classic in teaching and scholarship in the United States and in seventeen countries in Latin America, Europe, and South and East Asia. The composite is a global history of the discipline of art history over more than a century and a rare account of the reception of a single key work"-- Provided by publisher.
