ACT 1
Four talks by ERICH HELLER
2: The World of Things and the World of Inwardness
Erich Heller discusses some characteristic works of ' Romantic art ' which, by virtue of their Preoccupation with 'external shapes,'. seem to contradict Hegel's doctrine of the ' Romantic inwardness ': Flemish painting from the van Eycks to Quentin Massys, the naturalism' of Rembrandt, and the Hellenism of the Italian Rennaissance. Yet even there Erich Heller believes the Hegelian retreat of the ' Spirit' into human subjectivity can be seen to take its inevitable course-for Instance, in Jan van Eyck 's painting of the Arnolfinl, Michelangelo's Pieta Rondanlni , or Rembrandt's late self-portraits.
