The Matrix Of Western Culture: Perspectives On History, The Arts And Ideas

Art, music, literature, philosophy, science, history: how do they all fit together? The Matrix of Western Culture presents a framework for seeing the "big picture." Imagine a grid with these cultural categories on one axis and time, marked in centuries, on the other. The interior of the matrix comprises a representative repertoire described in a series of brief, readable essays. Well-read adults will, over the years, have encountered individual works in each of the categories that make up the matrix. Many readers will share my interest in organizing this knowledge into a coherent framework. The Matrix of Western Culture offers an accessible overview that one can keep in mind all at once.
