About This Item

NY: Charles Scribners Sons, 1913. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/None. Hardcover, dark blue cloth with gilt title on spine, 394 pages. Top edge gilt. A collection of essays. James Gibbons Huneker (January 31, 1857 – February 9, 1921) was an American art, book, music, and theater critic. He was known for his passionate enthusiasms, self-taught erudition, and sometimes extravagant prose style. Yearly trips to Europe throughout his life also afforded Huneker the opportunity to report to Americans on new developments in the visual and performing arts. In an age of largely parochial criticism, he was more sophisticated and knowledgeable about modern art and music than many of his colleagues, and he saw himself as a someone who was explicitly working for America's cultural coming-of-age.
