Literature and Visual Arts

Presentations | English

Literature in itself is an art form. Carefully chosen words paint visuals upon a page for the theatre of the mind. This has often inspired other, more visually oriented artists to create tangible objects based on these mental images. Not only can this create a more fully realized piece of art, it also allows these artists to produce content based on their own interpretations. This creative wealth of material has continued to inspire modern Literature married with the visual arts in ancient Greece, where writers could see their words brought to life courtesy of Greek tragedies performed at least as far back as the 6th century B.C. Not everyone was pleased by this particular art form. The philosopher Plato considered life an imitation of true reality, and likewise derided art as an imitation of imitation, an emotional manipulation that took focus from reason.
