Journalism Versus Art (1916)

Journalism Versus Art is a book written by Max Eastman and published in 1916. The book explores the differences between journalism and art, and the conflict that arises when the two are combined. Eastman argues that journalism is focused on the immediate and the sensational, while art is concerned with the timeless and the universal. He also discusses the impact of commercialism on both journalism and art, and the ways in which this can compromise their integrity. Throughout the book, Eastman draws on examples from both fields to illustrate his points, and offers insights into the nature of creativity and the role of the artist in society. Overall, Journalism Versus Art is a thought-provoking exploration of the tensions between these two important fields, and an important contribution to the ongoing debate about the relationship between art and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
